Avatar video generation for corporate training and localization
Elai converts scripts, PowerPoint decks and article URLs into presenter-style videos narrated by stock or custom avatars, with voice cloning and automated translation across a wide language set. Panopto acquired the company in October 2024 and now runs it as a standalone product aimed at corporate learning, layering interactive playback and avatar dialogs on top of the generator. Usage is billed in rendered video minutes rather than per seat.
Pre-paid minute allowances per period (1 free, 15 min at $29, 50 min at $125); extra minutes cost $2 each and re-renders consume the allowance again.
Use tool ↗Since the Panopto acquisition this reads less like a general avatar tool and more like a generation layer for L&D teams, and PPTX-to-video plus interactive playback are the real reasons to pick it over Synthesia. For marketing or social clips, Synthesia and HeyGen still deliver better avatar quality per dollar.
Watch out: Minutes are pre-paid per period and a corrected script means re-rendering, which spends the allowance a second time, so proof the text before you generate.
