Veo 3 (not to be confused with Sonovid product)
What it does: Veo 3 is an advanced AI video generation tool from Google DeepMind. It converts text or image prompts into highly realistic, cinematic video clips with synchronised native audio. This means you can get dialogue, background music, and sound effects which also match the visuals. Veo 3 enables users to create fully produced video scenes with smooth camera movements, realistic lighting, and lifelike motion, all without needing animation or editing skills.
Best for: SMEs wanting to create very high quality and cost-effective promotional materials without a dedicated media team.
Example use cases: An SaaS company wants to rapidly produce an explainer showing a user navigating their platform, narrated in multiple languages for a global audience; and a virtual tour company wants to simulate a guided walkthrough of a historical site, complete with multilingual audio and immersive sound effects.
Paid plans: Google AI Ultra Plan: £119.99.
Pro tip: Be as specific as possible with your prompts. For better results, include details about the setting, visual style, action, and any audio or camera effects you want. For example, instead of writing, "a dog in a park," try, "a golden retriever playing fetch in a sunny park with laughing children, soft background acoustic music, and natural camera pans." The more detail you provide, the more accurate and engaging your generated video will be.
Synthesia
What it does: Synthesia creates AI-generated videos with realistic avatars and voiceovers based on your script — no cameras or studios needed.
