An avatar is an AI presenter that speaks your script on camera, putting a face on your video without filming anyone. Create one from a photo, a text prompt, or Descript’s stock gallery, assign it to a speaker, and Descript animates it lip-syncing to your audio, recorded or AI-generated.
On current plans, this feature uses AI credits. Learn more about tracking your media minutes and AI credits.Legacy and Sunset plans track usage differently. See Understanding your Legacy and Sunset plan for details.
