Elai
Upload scripts, PPTX, or URLs and select avatars, voices, and languages; Elai converts inputs into narrated videos with avatar presenters, voice cloning, translations, and PPTX-to-video conversion. Workflow uses subscription minute allotments: render videos using monthly minutes, manage projects, and export localized training or explainer videos.
The pricing page lists a Free plan ($0, no commitment), Creator ($29/Month or $23/Month billed annually $276), Team ($125/Month or $100/Month billed annually $1200), Enterprise (contact sales), and add-on purchases for avatars and voice cloning with stated annual prices.Is Elai right for you?
Good for
- Learning & development or small marketing teams producing localized avatar-driven training and explainer videos on a subscription-minute model.
- Large avatar library for presenter-led videos.
- Multilingual audio and translation support to localize videos.
Keep in mind
- Platform requires an active subscription model with fixed minutes rather than pay-as-you-go.
- Video minutes are consumed each time you render; deleted projects do not restore used minutes.
- Check subscription minute allocations and render policy before purchasing if you need pay‑as‑you‑go rendering or unpredictable per‑minute billing instead of prepaid minutes.
Pricing and plan limits
The pricing page documents per-plan minute limits, monthly and annual toggles, and additional line-item add-ons with annual prices; pay-as-you-go is not available. For details about enterprise unlimited allocations contact sales.
