Review HeyGen?

Reviews praise HeyGen’s realistic avatars, fast scaling for marketing/education, and strong translation/dubbing, though some note flat voices, slow processing, and strict/opaque moderation. Many find the interface easy and production time sharply reduced; quality improves with good lighting and static framing. Complaints focus on billing changes, credit deductions, and unresponsive support. Makers of

I’m genuinely impressed by HeyGen’s Avatar IV. What stands out immediately is the fusion of simplicity and sophistication: from a single photo and a short script, Avatar IV creates a fully-animated, expressive video avatar — complete with lip sync, facial micro-expressions, natural head movements and even hand gestures.

In my experience testing it, the results feel remarkably human. The model seems to interpret tone and rhythm, not just mimic them — there’s a tangible sense of timing and emotion.

The fact that you can animate not just humans but also stylised characters, pets or even anime-style avatars extends its creative potential enormously.

I paid 2 months subscriptions and honestly I highly DO NOT RECOMMEND this AI tool. They basically "scam" you secretly by deducting your credits for no reason. 1) The so called "very powerful" Avatar IV" doesn't even work property with the lip sync. 2) In a day, you will notice at least more than 10 times broken links. 3) For so called Unlimited Videos, same issue with lip sync. Sometimes they worked but no consistency. 4) Customer support did not really understand the products and they tend to give you generic answers which they did not really look into your issues personally. 5) Slow response and not friendly user. The most frustrating part is they deducted your credits and you know we paid for the credits so basically they are cheating my money and no explanation is given for this. Really disappointed with this and be careful all the people out there, do not let those tiktok videos out there fool you.

I had been very happy with HeyGen up until now and had signed up for an annual subscription for translation services. Then, out of the blue, without any communication or explanation, the number of translation minutes was reduced overnight. When I signed up for the annual subscription, I was promised “unlimited” minutes, which is why I chose this option. Suddenly, it's limited to 120 minutes per month. When you contact support, they just say they had to change it and are in no way willing to find a good solution. I'm really speechless—I've never experienced such poor treatment of customers anywhere else.
