About HeyGen
HeyGen is an AI video creation platform that combines AI avatar video generation, video translation and dubbing, and interactive video capabilities — positioning itself between enterprise video creation (Synthesia) and consumer/creator tools. For APAC enterprise sales and marketing teams, HeyGen's differentiation lies in three specific capabilities: personalised video creation at scale, video translation with AI lip-sync for APAC market localisation, and interactive video branching for personalised content experiences.
HeyGen's Video Translation feature is one of the most compelling capabilities for APAC enterprises with multi-market video content needs. Rather than creating separate videos for each APAC language, existing spokesperson or presenter videos are translated into Japanese, Korean, Mandarin, Bahasa, Vietnamese, and Thai with AI-generated lip-sync that matches the dubbing audio — maintaining the authenticity of the original presenter while making content accessible in local languages. For APAC companies with regional heads or CEOs producing quarterly communications, Video Translation means the same message reaches all APAC markets in local languages without re-filming.
For APAC B2B sales teams, HeyGen's personalised video capability enables SDRs and account executives to create customised video prospecting messages at scale — recording one base video message and personalising the opening with each prospect's name, company, and specific context through AI-generated voice and avatar modifications. Personalised video outreach consistently outperforms text-only email in response rates for APAC enterprise sales contexts where relationship differentiation matters.
HeyGen's interactive video feature enables APAC learning and marketing teams to create branching video experiences — viewers can make choices at key decision points, routing to different video segments based on their responses — enabling more engaging training experiences and personalised marketing journeys than linear video allows.
