Short answer: most teams should pay for one avatar video tool. Run the same 60-second script in both. Score usable takes, voice/likeness controls, and whether you still need a human edit.
Protocol
- Use one real script you would actually publish.
- Generate it in HeyGen and Synthesia.
- Compare first-take acceptance, export limits, and commercial-use terms on official plan pages.
- Do not buy annual until one tool owns a weekly video job.
