HeyGen Talking Photo
heygen.com
HeyGen Talking Photo (part of HeyGen's AI Photo Avatar / Image to Video tools) turns a still photo into a talking video by adding realistic AI motion, lip-sync, and voice. Users upload a reference image, type or paste a script, and the platform generates a video with natural facial expressions and synchronized speech. It is offered as one of the video-creation tools within the broader HeyGen AI video platform, which supports 175+ languages and dialects for voice and lip-sync.
