Our take
Pick Colossyan if l&D and enablement teams who already write scripts and want avatar scenes plus a course export. Pick Synthesia if l&D and internal comms teams who want avatar videos without a camera crew. Skip Synthesia if creators who want a consumer avatar clip (HeyGen) or a general generative video tool (Runway).
