How Synthesia credits work
Synthesia's current knowledge base says each second of generated video uses 2 credits. A one-minute generated video therefore consumes 120 credits. Credits are shared across usage-based AI features, so dubbing and AI-generated assets can also affect the available pool.
Basic vs Starter
Basic is useful for evaluating the editor, avatars and voices. Starter is the first meaningful production tier because it adds video downloads, AI Dubbing, logo removal, support and a larger practical set of business publishing features.
Starter vs Creator
Creator primarily buys more capacity and broader production capability: 3,600 monthly credits instead of 1,200, more avatars, multiple avatars per scene, API access, interactive video and more guest access.
Who should consider Enterprise?
Enterprise is designed for larger teams that need shared workspaces, SSO, brand kits, SCORM export, more collaboration and organization controls. It should be evaluated on workflow and governance needs, not just video-minute volume.
