  • A whole scene from one prompt

    HeyGen Video 1.0 generates subject, setting and synced audio — dialogue, ambience and effects — in a single call at 768p, from a text prompt, an image, or a reference clip. It's built on a post-trained MiniMax H3.

  • A penny a second, through October

    Launch pricing is $0.01/sec — half the $0.02 list rate — through end of October, and it's live on the HeyGen API plus OpenRouter, Runware and ComfyUI. HeyGen aims it at product demos, onboarding, training and property walkthroughs you'd otherwise have to shoot.

  • Cloudflare AI Gateway routes itself now

    Dynamic routing lets you swap a model name for a route that picks models by request metadata, A/B-splits traffic, and enforces per-user budgets with automatic fallback — and you publish new versions with no code deploy.
