Synthesia is known for AI avatar presenters that turn a script into training video in many languages. Morphic is a complete AI video production workspace with an agentic video editor: Copilot generates the scenes a course needs, blocks each shot with you in 3D Scene, and edits the multi-track Compose timeline on request. Storyboards, voiceover, subtitles, songs and sound effects sit in the same project. A workflow saves your best module format, with the model and settings kept at every step, so the next course runs the same way. Teams get Live collaboration from the Pro plan, and Enterprise adds User groups and permissions, Credit limits, Model access and Connectors.

What is agentic editing on Morphic?
Agentic editing means an AI agent works inside the edit itself. On Morphic, Copilot helps stage a shot in 3D, fixes a take from a plain instruction, and changes the Compose timeline when you ask, across three stages.
- 01
Block the shot in 3D
Place each person, plan the move, and set the lens and camera height before the model renders a frame. - 02
Fix the take
Tell Copilot what to change in a clip, extend it, relight it, or re-frame it from another angle. - 03
Cut with Copilot
Work the Compose timeline by hand, or describe the edit you want and Copilot applies it.
Each stage works by hand as well. 3D Scene runs continuity checks that catch a crossed 180-degree line, and on paid plans Copilot builds the scene from a prompt and checks its own edits. Export the frame or the shot, and it becomes the reference the video model follows.
Why teams choose Morphic over Synthesia
Teams choose Morphic when a training or explainer video needs real scenes, cut, graded and scored in one place. These are the parts of the workspace they use most.
Edits on request
Ask Copilot to fit every scene to the narration. One undo takes it all back.
Whole-video timeline
Layer clips, voiceover and music across the full cut, trimmed frame-exact.
Grade and key in place
Match shots with curves, wheels and LUTs, and key out a green screen too.
Reshoot by instruction
Change a clip by describing it, or extend a shot beyond its final frame.
Review on the frame
Reviewers pin a note to a spot or a moment in a video and tag the owner.
Governed teamwork
Live co-editing from Pro. Enterprise adds groups, credit limits, model access.

Preguntas frecuentes
For training and explainer videos built from real scenes, yes. Morphic generates the shots, blocks them in 3D Scene, cuts them on the Compose timeline with Copilot, and adds voiceover, subtitles and music in one project. Synthesia is the quicker pick when every scene is an avatar presenting a script and the video has to go out in many languages.
Not as a stock library. On Morphic you save a presenter's look as a Reference, generate the narration with speech, and lip sync the two into a talking shot. The same Reference keeps that presenter consistent across every module, and Enterprise teams can clone a narrator's voice once the speaker gives permission.
Synthesia centers on avatar presenters, dubbing and LMS publishing for business video. Morphic is a complete AI video production workspace: Copilot plans and runs the generations, 3D Scene sets each shot's staging and camera, Compose handles the cut, grade and mix across the whole video, and the team reviews and co-edits live.
Yes. Attach the course script or a PDF and Copilot plans the shots, then generates each scene, from a workplace scenario to a product close-up. Subtitles are transcribed and translated into a second language, and Copilot can watch a finished clip to answer review questions, such as whether a step is shown clearly.
It gives you control over the parts a prompt leaves to chance: where each person stands, which way they move, the lens, and where the camera sits. Block the shot with mannequins and cameras, let continuity checks flag a crossed 180-degree line, then export the frame or shot and attach it as the reference.
Yes, on Enterprise. User groups and permissions set who can run workflows and delete files, Credit limits cap each member's monthly or daily spend, and Model access decides which models the workspace can use. Connectors bring the team's own files and voices into the same workspace.
Yes. Download your finished videos, slides and audio, then upload them to Morphic or give Copilot a link to fetch them. Attach a clip in the chat and Copilot places it on the Compose timeline, and a presenter or product saved as a Reference carries into every new scene.
Yes. The free plan takes a project from the first prompt to a finished cut before you pay anything. Paid plans add Copilot inside 3D Scene, watermark-free exports and upscaling, and from the Pro plan up, extra seats so the team can edit together live.
