Vidyard: Vidyard is the established video prospecting tool with deeper CRM integration and no synthetic cloning

AI video prospecting that generates one personalised video per prospect from a single recording
As of 1 September 2026, Potion starts at $99/month. Potion records a sales video once and swaps the personalised segment per prospect using a synthetic clone of the sender voice and face. Softwr lists it under Sales Enablement. Potion is available on Web, Browser extension.
Overview
Potion is a video prospecting tool for outbound sales. The problem it addresses is that personalised video works in cold outreach and does not scale, because a representative cannot record five hundred individual videos. Potion has the representative record a template once, then generates a distinct video per prospect where the opening segment, in which the prospect name and company are spoken, is synthesised in the representative own cloned voice and lip synced face. The remainder of the video is the original recording. Each prospect receives a unique landing page with the video and a call to action. The pricing is where it separates from competitors, and it is worth stating plainly because it inverts the usual model. Potion charges per workspace, not per seat: Starter is 99 US dollars a month for 750 dynamic AI videos and three full AI video templates a month, Professional is 299 US dollars a month for unlimited AI videos, and Enterprise is quoted. Both paid tiers carry a seven day free trial and there is no permanently free plan. A five person sales team on Professional pays 299 US dollars a month in total, where a per seat video tool at 30 US dollars a seat would cost less and one at 80 would cost more. For larger teams the workspace model is decisively cheaper. Buyers are outbound sales teams and agencies. The trade off is that synthetic video personalisation is a tactic with a shelf life. It works partly because recipients are surprised that a video says their name, and that surprise decays as the technique becomes common. Buyers should treat response rate uplift as a decaying asset and measure it monthly rather than assuming the first quarter numbers hold.
The honest half
Concrete and checkable, so you can decide whether any of them matter to you. This is the half of a review a vendor will not write about Potion.
Cross-shopped
Each pairing was judged by two reviewers asking whether a buyer would genuinely weigh the two against each other. The ones that failed were deleted rather than published.

Loom: Loom is far cheaper for genuine one to one recordings when volume is low enough to record each video


Synthesia: Synthesia is the choice if you want fully synthetic presenter video rather than personalising your own recordings

Answered, with sources
Each answer names the page it came from, so you can check it rather than take our word for it.

No. Both paid tiers include a seven day free trial, but there is no permanently free tier.
Yes. The personalised opening segment is synthesised in your cloned voice with lip synced video, while the body of the video is your original recording.
