AI video generation, built into your video host.
Generate a presenter-led intro from a script. We host it, embed it in 2 KB, auto-caption it, and track every play. All for less than HeyGen alone.
Real output — generated, hosted, captioned, and embedded with the same workflow you'll use.
You're buying a finished, embedded, tracked video.
Nobody actually wants an AI tool. They want a polished video on their landing page, a captioned intro inside their course, or a personalised explainer in tomorrow morning's drip campaign — and they want it ready by lunch. Most AI video tools stop the moment they hand you an MP4. We don't. The render is one step inside a workflow that includes hosting, captions, embed code, email delivery, and analytics on every play.
- Step 01
Type a script (or paste bullets)
Drop in finished copy or three bullet points — we expand them into a tight, read-aloud-ready script with GPT.
- Step 02
Pick a voice and a presenter
Choose from 100+ ElevenLabs voices and 50+ presenters, or upload your own face at no extra cost.
- Step 03
Click Generate
We render voice, presenter, captions, and a clean cut on the GPU pool. Most videos finish in 45–90 seconds.
- Step 04
Hosted, captioned, indexed for SEO
The MP4 lands in your library with a public watch page, transcript, chapter markers, and Schema.org VideoObject JSON-LD that Google can actually read.
- Step 05
Embed it. Email it. A/B-test it. Track every play.
Drop a 2KB lite embed on a landing page, paste a tracking-pixel video block into an email, or run two thumbnails head-to-head — all from the same record.
One subscription instead of three.
Stitch the workflow together with separate tools and the bill adds up fast. Numbers below are publicly listed plan prices for the tier most teams actually need to do this work.
| What you need | HeyGen Creator$24/mo | Wistia Plus$24/mo | Mailchimp Video$35/mo | HostMyVideo Pro$29/mo |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AI talking-head generation | Yes (15 min/mo) | — | — | Yes (5 videos/mo + top-ups) |
| Host & stream the videos | Export only | Yes | — | Yes (unlimited) |
| 2 KB lite embed | — | Heavy embed | — | Yes |
| Auto transcript + captions | — | — | — | Yes |
| Email video embed + open tracking | — | — | Yes | Yes |
| A/B test thumbnails | — | Top tier only | — | Yes |
| Monthly cost | $24/mo | $24/mo | $35/mo | $29/mo |
Customer using all three competing tools: $83/mo. Customer on HostMyVideo Pro: $29/mo. Same MP4 quality. Same ElevenLabs voices. Half the cost when you add up what you'd otherwise stitch together.
Same AI engines, lower price.
Under the hood we use D-ID for the talking-head render and ElevenLabs for the voice synthesis. These are the same engines powering most of the premium AI video platforms — including the ones charging more.
We're cheaper because we don't run a sales team or fund custom avatar R&D. We let the proven engines do the AI heavy lifting, and we focus on the platform around them — the hosting, the embed, the captions, the email block, the analytics. That's the part most tools forget.
What you get on every render.
- Voiceover from any of 100+ ElevenLabs voices
- 50+ presenters or upload your own face (no extra cost)
- 60-second to 5-minute scripts
- Bullet-point input — we expand to a full script via GPT
- Auto-captions baked into the watch player
- Lip-sync in 30+ languages
- 1080p MP4 output, ready for any aspect ratio

Founder intro for a landing page
60-second talking head, hosted on a custom domain, embedded into Webflow with the 2 KB snippet. Loads before your hero text settles.
Sales explainer for a cold email
30-second script, dropped into a sequence as an animated GIF preview that links to the watch page. Open and play tracked at the recipient level.
Course module intro
90-second captioned welcome, hosted on a public watch page so Google can index every word of the transcript for SEO.

45-second walkthrough, embedded inside the product on the empty-state screen. Lite embed means it doesn't tank Time-to-Interactive.
Eight quick answers
How is this different from HeyGen?
HeyGen makes the MP4 and stops there — you still need to find somewhere to host it, embed it, caption it, and track plays. HostMyVideo bundles all of that. The AI engines under the hood are similar (we use D-ID + ElevenLabs), but you pay $29/mo on Pro instead of $24 for HeyGen alone plus $24 for hosting plus $35 for an email video tool.
What AI engines do you use?
D-ID for the talking-head presenter render and ElevenLabs for the voice synthesis. These are the same engines that power most premium AI video platforms. We're cheaper because we don't run a sales team or fund custom-avatar R&D — we let the proven engines do the AI work and we focus on the platform around them.
Can I upload my own photo as the avatar?
Yes. Upload a single front-facing photo and we'll generate AI videos using your likeness, with consent verification on first use to prevent misuse. There is no extra cost for custom avatars on any paid plan.
How long can the video be?
From 15 seconds up to 5 minutes per render. Render time scales with script length — most 60–90 second clips finish in well under two minutes.
Do I get the MP4 file?
Yes. Every generated video has a Download button on its library page so you can pull the MP4 for offline use, paid ads, or wherever else you need a raw file.
Are captions included?
Yes. Auto-captions are generated from the source script and baked into the player as a toggleable subtitle track. They're also exposed as plain text on the public watch page so Google reads them as crawlable content.
Can the video be embedded in an email?
Yes. The Email Embed feature renders an animated GIF preview that links through to the watch page, with per-recipient open tracking. Works in Gmail, Outlook, and most other clients that strip raw <video> tags.
What happens if generation fails?
If a render fails for any reason — engine error, content moderation, network blip — the credit is auto-refunded to your balance and you're not charged. We notify you in-app and via email so you can adjust the script and try again.
