HeyGen

  • Avatar movements feel unnatural in longer videos and repetitive with limited emotional expression, appearing stiff and robotic after 60 seconds
  • Cannot reliably choreograph natural interactions like walking through a room, using devices, or drinking from objects
  • Billing gap between marketed unlimited plans and actual credit consumption is highest complaint with lost credits on failed renders
  • Inconsistent lip sync and voice quality with slow processing and occasional moderation blocks without explanation
  • Customer support described as non-existent with no way to complain or reach a human representative
