Unpopular opinion: It's a great tool for scale, but it makes all videos feel generic.

Okay, I’ve been using Synthesia for client work for about six months now. It’s amazing for scaling training videos or quick updates. The time-to-publish is unbeatable.

But here’s my thing: after a while, all the videos feel… the same. The cadence, the slight head movements, the delivery. Even with different avatars and voices, there’s a polished uniformity that strips out any real personality. I used it for a product announcement and our community said it felt “corporate” and cold. 😬

It’s a fantastic tool for pure utility, but for any content where connection or brand personality matters, it flattens everything into a generic template. Anyone else feel this way, or found ways to hack more life into the outputs?
