Make dozens of realistic videos with one AI Persona
Streamline content creation and expand your team of presenters
Enhance every video with a virtual version of yourself
Tired of struggling with perfect lighting and challenging recording conditions? Eliminate the endless cycle of retakes and bulk recording with an AI Persona. Simply record one video to train your AI Persona, and effortlessly generate lip-synced videos featuring a cloned version of yourself.
Your AI Persona delivers every script with precision, no matter how complex the topic, and can be integrated into any of your Kapwing projects. Enhance tutorials, product demos, explainer videos, and B-roll-heavy content by adding a human touch to every video regardless of your time constraints.
Build out a video library with a consistent face
Using an AI Persona, creative teams can ensure that serial content is regularly updated without breaking brand consistency. Lecturers, thought leaders, executives, and politicians can regularly create video content from just a script, blurb, or voice memo.
Kapwing’s advanced voice technology ensures your speaker's pitch, tone, emphasis, and intonations remain the same across videos. Whether you're creating educational content, promotional videos, or engaging social media posts, your AI Persona will maintain the same high standards of delivery.
Find the right presenter for every video project
Kapwing’s library of 52 AI Avatars offers a diverse selection of male and female voices, covering various ages, nationalities, accents, and diction styles. Generate videos with a more authoritative voice for corporate presentations, a friendly tone for social media content, or a specific accent to resonate with a regional audience. Whatever your project, Kapwing has the right personality, including presenters with green screen backgrounds for easy video background removal.
Automatically lip-sync videos without editing experience
No matter your level of editing experience, ensuring your AI Persona has accurate lip-syncing is as easy as clicking one button. Video output looks realistic, maintaining the credibility and professionalism of your message.

Committed to education on the use of AI
Kapwing's 'Educational' section is designed to showcase the capabilities of open-source lip sync technologies while helping to educate the public on how AI can be used. To better understand the realism of deepfake content users can experience how celebrities are engineered into fake speech. All Persona videos that include a celeb have a non-removable watermark to indicate that the content is AI-generated. Using a celebrity or anyone else you do not have permission to use is prohibited and against Kapwing's Terms of Service.
HOW TO CREATE AN AI PERSONA
- Create or choose Persona
Film a video (15 seconds minimum) to train a custom AI Persona. Upload or record your voice and name the Persona. Or, choose a voice from the stock library in the Persona tab.
- Input the script
Type the text that you want the Persona to read aloud. Kapwing will generate the speech, attached to an unsynced video layer. Make other edits you want, combining Persona videos with B-roll, music, text, subtitles, and more.
- Export your video
Select 'Export Project' to sync the voice and video together, then download and share
What's different about Kapwing?
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a Kapwing watermark on exports?
If you are using Kapwing on a Free account then all exports — including all AI Personas — will contain a watermark. Once you upgrade to a Pro account the watermark will be completely removed from your creations.
What can I use Kapwing's "Educational" personas for?
You can use Kapwing's "Educational" section to get a better understanding of how deepfake content is generated using the latest open-source lip sync technologies. Users can only publish Persona videos using people that they have been granted permission to use. Use a video of yourself, choose an approved stock Persona, or get explicit permission when using a video of someone else to train as a Persona. Using a celebrity or anyone else you do not have permission to use is prohibited and against Kapwing's Terms of Service.
Can I create deepfake videos?
Yes, you can create deepfake videos of yourself, by using videos of people who have given you explicit permission, or using Kapwing's list of Stock Personas. Deepfake videos are not illegal and there is no federal legislation in the United States. However, using a celebrity or anyone else you do not have permission to use, is prohibited and against Kapwing's Terms of Service.
What is an AI Persona?
An AI Persona is a digital avatar created using AI. Kapwing has three types of Persona offerings: cloning yourself, using a Stock Persona, and Educational Personas. You can clone yourself into a Persona by uploading a video speaking to camera. Kapwing's Stock Personas are real people from a diverse range of backgrounds. The Educational Personas are famous faces that are included to help showcase the capabilities of open-source lip sync technologies
Is it free to use an AI Persona?
Yes, the AI Person Generator is free for all users to try. On a free account, you can use a stock AI Persona or create a self-clone to generate up to 1 minute of lip-synced speech. Upgrading to a Pro Account unlocks 15 minutes of generation per month and access to all premium voices
Can I create a group of AI Personas?
Yes, you can create multiple AI Personas by uploading various recordings — it's not limited to a single clone. For marketing and content creation teams, Kapwing enables you to have a personalized clone for every team member.
How many stock AI Personas does Kapwing have?
Kapwing offers 52 diverse AI Personas, powered by ElevenLabs, one of the world’s leading AI text-to-speech platforms. Our extensive library includes avatars with a wide range of ages, voices, genders, narration styles, and accents, ensuring there’s a perfect fit for any project. Some avatars also feature green screen backgrounds, providing flexibility for seamless integration into any of your projects.
How long does it take to create an AI Persona?
Kapwing’s generation process is impressively fast. Unlike tools like Synthesia, which can take a full business day to create an AI Avatar, Kapwing completes the task in just 5–10 minutes. Once your Persona clone is ready, generating its dialogue for a new transcript typically takes another 5–10 minutes, depending on the length. With Kapwing, the entire process is completed in minutes, not hours or days.
Kapwing is free to use for teams of any size. We also offer paid plans with additional features, storage, and support.
