The short version

  • Only HeyGen has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: greytHR published starting price of INR 2,495/month covers only up to 50 employees, so larger companies must move to a higher, unpublished tier; HeyGen avatar movements feel unnatural in longer videos and repetitive with limited emotional expression, appearing stiff and robotic after 60 seconds

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

greytHR

  • Published starting price of INR 2,495/month covers only up to 50 employees, so larger companies must move to a higher, unpublished tier
  • The platform serves 34,000+ companies and its entry tier is scoped by headcount rather than by feature set, meaning growth past 50 employees forces a plan change

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
