Synthesia is an AI video platform for creating presenter and training videos with AI avatars in multiple languages. It provides AI avatars and voices, along with tools for dubbing and interactive video. The Basic plan costs $0, while the Starter plan costs $19 monthly or $14 per month with annual billing. Starter still includes one editor and 1,200 monthly credits, and unused credits do not roll over. Synthesia does not sell self-serve credit top-ups when that balance runs out. Use the plan prices, credit rates, and editor costs below to find the tier that covers your video minutes and total monthly bill.
In this article, we describe Synthesia’s pricing plans. Prices and limits were verified in August 2026 through Synthesia’s pricing page and billing documentation.
Key takeaways
The Starter plan costs $168 yearly and covers about 120 standard-video minutes, making it suitable for a solo creator averaging 10 minutes a month.
For $708 yearly, the Creator plan gives one editor about 360 standard-video minutes plus API and interactive-video access.
Lip-synced dubbing consumes 240 credits per minute, twice the rate for standard video or dubbing without lip sync.
Five Creator editors cost $445 on monthly billing or $3,540 a year on annual billing.
Synthesia overview
Synthesia turns text into videos presented by AI avatars and voices. The platform supports dubbing, template-based production, and interactive video.
Its clearest fit is consistent presenter content in multiple languages. Instructional designers can produce training and onboarding videos without filming a presenter for each version.
Synthesia credits
Synthesia uses one credit pool for video generation and other metered features. The selected action determines how quickly that pool is consumed.
Action | Credit rate |
|---|---|
Standard video | 120 credits per minute |
Dubbing without lip sync | 120 credits per minute |
Dubbing with lip sync | 240 credits per minute |
Bulk personalization | 90 credits per minute |
API generation | 75 credits per minute |
Selected fast generative assets | 48 credits each |
Higher-quality or action assets | 96 credits each |
Selected AI images | About 9 credits each |
Lip-synced dubbing consumes twice as many credits as standard video for the same runtime. A 10-minute video costs 1,200 credits as standard video and 2,400 credits with lip-synced dubbing.
Higher-quality or action assets also cost twice as much as selected fast assets. Ten assets cost either 480 or 960 credits at those rates.
Synthesia measures video usage by the second. Drafting and playback are free, while an edit charges only for new or changed duration. Removing words does not consume credits.
Credits reset at the end of each billing period and do not roll over. The Basic, Starter, and Creator plans stop generation when the remaining balance cannot cover the requested job.
Basic, Starter, Creator, or Enterprise
Synthesia offers three self-serve plans and one plan with a custom contract. The table converts each credit allocation into approximate standard-video output at 120 credits per minute.
Feature | Basic | Starter | Creator | Enterprise |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Monthly price | $0 | $19 | $89 | Contact sales |
Annual price | N/A | $14/month, $168 total | $59/month, $708 total | Custom |
Credits | 1,200/month | 1,200/month or 14,500/year | 3,600/month or 44,000/year | Unlimited standard video, custom credits for advanced features |
Approximate standard-video output | 10 min/month | 10 min/month or 120 min/year | 30 min/month or 360 min/year | Unlimited standard video |
Editors and guests | 1 editor, 0 guests | 1 editor, 3 guests | 1 editor, 5 guests | Custom |
Stock avatars | 9 | 125+ | 180+ | 240+ |
Personal Avatars | 0 | 3 | 5 | Unlimited under fair use |
Downloads and logo removal | No | Yes | Yes | Yes |
API and interactivity | No | No | Yes | Yes |
Collaboration and Brand Kits | No | No | Limited collaboration, no Brand Kits | Yes |
SCORM and SSO | No | No | No | Yes |
Basic ($0/month)
The Basic plan lets one editor test Synthesia with 1,200 credits per month. That covers about 10 minutes of standard video.
The Basic plan includes nine stock avatars, voices in more than 160 languages, and over 60 templates. It does not include guests or Personal Avatars.
The free plan provides limited royalty-free content. It also excludes paid production features such as MP4 downloads and removal of the Synthesia logo.
Starter ($19 monthly or $14/month billed yearly)
The Starter plan adds downloadable videos for one editor at $19 monthly or $168 annually. The annual credit pool contains 14,500 credits, enough for about 120 minutes of standard video.
Monthly billing provides 1,200 credits per cycle. The Starter plan includes one editor and three guests. Its avatar allowance covers more than 125 stock avatars and three Personal Avatars.
The plan also includes:
MP4 downloads and logo removal
AI Video Assistant and AI Dubbing
Expanded media, on-brand avatars, and chat or email support
A buyer who uses the full annual allowance pays $168 / 120 minutes = $1.40 per standard-video minute. That rate applies only when every credit funds standard video.
Starter reaches its limit above about 10 standard-video minutes in one monthly cycle. Creator is required for API access, interactive video, or multiple avatars in one scene.
Creator ($89 monthly or $59/month billed yearly)
The Creator plan provides 3,600 monthly credits or 44,000 annual credits. Those pools cover about 30 standard-video minutes per month or 360 minutes per year.
Creator includes one editor and five guests. It also provides more than 180 stock avatars and five Personal Avatars. It adds API access, with API usage deducted from the same credit pool.
The plan also provides:
Interactive calls to action, branching, and quizzes
Multiple avatars in one scene and branded video pages
Priority support
Annual billing costs $59 x 12 = $708. Full use of the stated 360-minute output produces an effective rate of $708 / 360 minutes = $1.97 per standard-video minute.
Creator costs more per available standard-video minute than Starter at annual rates. The higher price pays for API access, interactivity, and the other production features.
Guests can primarily view or comment. Each additional person who creates videos needs another subscription unless Synthesia supplies a different arrangement through an Enterprise contract.
Enterprise (contact sales)
The Enterprise plan is built around team administration and high-volume production. It provides a custom number of editors and guests, unlimited standard-video minutes, and a separate credit pool for advanced features.
Enterprise includes more than 240 stock avatars and unlimited Personal Avatars under fair-use constraints. It also provides one-click translation into over 80 languages.
The plan includes:
SAML/SSO, live collaboration, and Brand Kits
SCORM export, Dubbing API, and voice cloning
Customer success, onboarding, and workspace credit allocation
Synthesia also supports SOC 2 and GDPR requirements for Enterprise customers. Administrators receive alerts when advanced-feature usage reaches 75%, 90%, and 100% of the available credits. They can purchase more credits through their customer success manager.
An AWS Marketplace listing provides one public contract example: $29,880 for three users over 12 months with unlimited video minutes. That listing describes one contract configuration rather than a standard Enterprise price.
A solo pilot, a regular creator, or a five-editor team
Synthesia charges for both credits and full editors. Your total bill depends on the required credit capacity and the number of full editors.
Solo pilot producing 8 standard-video minutes monthly
A solo pilot producing eight minutes needs 8 minutes x 120 credits = 960 credits. The Starter plan provides 1,200 monthly credits, leaving 240 credits.
Basic provides the same monthly credit count, but the Starter plan is the practical choice for downloadable, unbranded videos or Personal Avatars.
Solo creator producing 15 standard-video minutes monthly
A solo creator producing 15 minutes needs 15 minutes x 120 credits = 1,800 credits. Starter provides 1,200 credits and falls 600 credits short.
Starter cannot accept a self-serve top-up. Creator is therefore the first self-serve plan that covers the month, which moves the annual billing rate from the $14 Starter headline to $59 per month.
Localization team dubbing 10 minutes with lip sync
A localization team dubbing 10 minutes with lip sync needs 10 minutes x 240 credits = 2,400 credits. Starter cannot complete the batch, while Creator leaves 1,200 of its 3,600 monthly credits.
The same 10 minutes without lip sync cost 10 minutes x 120 credits = 1,200 credits. That version fits Starter exactly.
Five-editor production team using Creator
A five-editor team needs five Creator subscriptions because the plan includes one editor. Monthly billing costs 5 editors x $89 = $445 per month.
Annual billing costs 5 editors x $59 = $295 per month effective, or $295 x 12 = $3,540 billed yearly. The five included guests cannot replace five editor licenses.
The Enterprise plan is the only listed tier with SCORM, SSO, and live collaboration. It also adds governance controls.
Personal Avatars or Studio Express-1
Personal Avatars are included by count on the Starter, Creator, and Enterprise plans. The Studio Express-1 avatar is a separate add-on with a different production process.
Studio Express-1 costs $1,000 per year and is available only with annual plans. Synthesia says processing takes between one and 10 days, depending on whether the avatar uses self-recorded footage or studio footage.
Synthesia or Creatify
Synthesia and Creatify produce video for different operating goals. Synthesia focuses on presenter and learning videos, while Creatify focuses on performance advertising.
Decision | Synthesia | Creatify |
|---|---|---|
Primary output | Scripted videos led by AI presenters | Paid-social and cross-channel ads |
Best-fit work | Multilingual training, dubbing, and interactive learning | Ad variations, creative testing, and reporting |
Enterprise tools | SCORM, SSO, governance, and live collaboration | Campaign launch, measurement, and iteration |
Starting material | Scripts and learning content | Product pages, URLs, or photos |
Advertised scale | Plan choice centers on credits, editors, and governance | 1,500+ avatars and 75+ languages |
Creatify Agent develops ad concepts, casts avatars, and produces finished variations. AdFlow divides ad creation into three stages: product imagery, audiovisual production, and messaging.
Performance Agent connects creative production with campaign launch and optimization. Creatify therefore fits performance advertising when the workflow must continue through testing, campaign execution, and reporting.
Choose Synthesia for consistent spokesperson videos or learning content in multiple languages. Creatify fits performance-ad teams that use campaign results to guide each new creative iteration.
Who each Synthesia plan is right for
Basic: testing the workflow and producing occasional internal clips without downloads or Personal Avatars.
Starter annual: one creator averaging no more than about 10 minutes of standard video per month.
Creator annual: one regular producer needing 20 to 30 minutes, API access, or interactive video.
Enterprise: teams that need multiple editors, high-volume collaboration, or LMS and security controls.
