Synthesys

Synthesys published a six-step guide to making AI whiteboard videos, covering the brief, voice and branding, storyboard review, rendering, editing and translation.

The useful advice: fix the script before paying for pictures. Script changes by chat cost nothing, and rendering waits for approval with the credit cost shown.

In Synthesys' own test, a drawn label stayed wrong after two paid redraws. The finished lesson also ran 3 minutes 5 seconds instead of the requested 4 minutes.…

Synthesys has published a Higgsfield and HeyGen comparison for avatar videos and ads. Its recommendation is Higgsfield for videos built mostly from generated scenes, and HeyGen for videos carried by a presenter.

The pricing and terms were checked on 13 October 2026: Higgsfield started at $19 a month for 270 credits, while HeyGen’s Creator plan was $29 a month for 600 credits. Both restricted commercial use to paid plans.

Synthesys sells a competing AI video tool.…

Synthesys has a walkthrough for researching competitor video ads and rebuilding an ad's structure around your own product. Its example follows Huel and AG1, then adapts an ad for Fuelbar, a fictional snack bar.

The guide starts in Discover, shows how to follow brands and save ads, then examines variants, platforms, start dates and landing pages. Those signals aren't proof of sales or profit, and the AI creative analysis is an estimate.…

Synthesys has published a comparison of Arcads, Creatify and MakeUGC covering AI actors, trials, pricing, video length, API access and video rights.

It's based on the makers' own pages, checked on 2 October 2026. Synthesys makes a competing tool and says it hasn't run a side-by-side test.

The rights section is worth checking before choosing: Creatify and MakeUGC say videos belong to the customer.…

Synthesys has a guide to making a video sales letter, a scripted video that takes a viewer from a problem to a single offer.

It covers the script's hook, problem, solution, proof, offer and call to action, then walks through the Sales Video template. You supply the proof, review the storyboard and script, and check the credit cost before approving a render.

Confirm mode pauses at each step for approval; auto-run continues through to the finished cut.…

Synthesys has a seven-step guide to starting a faceless YouTube channel with AI, covering niche, topics, script, voice, visuals, assembly and an honest upload.

Its guidance on YouTube's 2026 rules is worth keeping alongside the production steps: faceless channels can be monetized, but mass-produced template videos can fall outside the rules. The guide says the finished video must show your creative vision, realistic AI scenes should be disclosed, and reviewers assess the channel as a whole.…

Synthesys's Nano Banana and Seedream comparison looks at marketing images, including resolution, editing, text and API costs. It's based on documentation and other people's tests; Synthesys hasn't run its own test and discloses that its Studio runs both model families.

Among the useful distinctions: both Nano Banana models and Seedream 4.5 reach 4K, while Seedream 5.0 Pro tops out at 2K. Seedream 5.0 Pro supports edits marked with boxes, arrows or doodles; Seedream 4.5 doesn't.…

Synthesys's Seedance and Kling comparison weighs clip length, resolution, references and cost for ads and short films. It uses published information rather than an in-house side-by-side test. Synthesys discloses that its Studio runs Seedance but not Kling's video models.

Seedance 2.5 makes clips of 4 to 30 seconds and tops out at 1080p. Kling 3.0 stops at 15 seconds but offers native 4K. Kling 4.0 wasn't fully launched at the time of the comparison; Flash early access was limited to Ultra…

Synthesys has published a guide to wasted AI video credits, with a useful distinction: a failed generation may be refunded, but a finished video that misses your brief still costs credits.

In its own test, the estimate under the prompt box showed about 60 credits for a 60-second project. The storyboard's approval card quoted 120 credits, which matched the final charge. Synthesys recommends checking that card rather than relying on the early estimate.…

Synthesys Studio puts 35 AI models inside the Synthesys app: 18 for images, 10 for video and 7 for voice. You choose the model and settings for individual images, clips or voiceovers.

The credit price updates as you change quality, resolution, length or image count. Credits are charged only when a result arrives in History. Failed, timed-out or safety-filtered runs aren't charged, and image batches charge only for images that arrive.…
