Synthesia announces platform update with interactive AI videos, full-body avatars


Synthesia also announced a new AI screen recorder that can simplify how companies create how-to videos for their workforce, among other content.

Today, London-based Synthesia, a startup that enables enterprises to create professional-grade AI videos, announced a major update for its platform, aimed at providing a well-rounded suite for accelerating their video-first communication initiatives. Just a few weeks ago, it debuted a new Express-1 model that enables the avatars to understand the context and sentiment in a piece of text and change their tone and facial expressions to deliver the speech. According to Dan-Vlad Cobasneanu, Synthesia’s head of product marketing, the improved avatars are the outcome of capturing data from thousands of people worldwide to train several large video and audio foundation models.
