## What the free plan includes

Basic gives 500 credits a month, 10 minutes of Studio video or dubbing, and 9 stock avatars. It shows a Synthesia watermark. The page says downloads first appear on Starter, so Basic may be share-link only. The grid of ticks was hard to read, so treat that as likely, not certain. MP4 downloads are Full HD, 1920 x 1080.

## What Synthesia is for

Synthesia makes AI avatar videos for training, sales and marketing. It is not an ad editor. It offers AI dubbing in 70+ languages on Basic, Starter and Pro. Brand kits are Enterprise only. We found no Hindi caption detail.

## A worked example

Dubbing costs 80 credits a minute with lip sync and 40 without.

- Starter's 1,250 credits: 1,250 / 80 = 15 minutes with lip sync. 1,250 / 40 = 31 minutes without.
- Pro's 6,000 credits: 6,000 / 80 = 75 minutes with lip sync.

Treat these as upper limits. The page does not say how credits are split with video creation.
