If you’ve wanted to turn presentations into videos without recording yourself, Google has some good news. Starting today, anyone with a personal Google account in the US can use AI avatars in Vids for free, with the rollout expanding to more regions later this summer. Free users get 10 monthly video generations that can be split between avatar creations and Veo-powered clips.
Your presentations just got an AI presenter, for free
You can pick a default avatar from Google’s curated gallery, or build your own custom one using Nano Banana 2. Either way, scripts and voiceovers now support 24 languages, so the same avatar can pitch your product in English one day and Arabic or Vietnamese the next.
If you have already built decks in Google Slides, Vids will turn that presentation into a storyboard and write a script for an avatar to deliver on screen, so you don’t have to repeat the same pitch across time zones.
Don’t want a face on screen? Paid users on AI Pro, Ultra, and Business or Enterprise tiers can swap in an AI voiceover instead. It now supports eight languages, including Japanese, Korean, Spanish, and French.
Paid Veo users also get to break past the old eight-second clip limit with extended Veo 3.1 limits in Vids. So now you can tell a longer story without scenes losing consistency halfway through.
What is coming next for your avatars in Google Vids?
Later this summer, an Emotion Steering feature will be rolled out to both free and paid users. This will allow you to adjust how an avatar or AI voiceover delivers a message so the tone better matches your intent.
Emotion Steering feature builds on Direct Avatars, which already lets you place an avatar into a scene and have it walk, talk, and interact with objects just by typing a prompt.
With free avatars, multilingual voiceovers, emotion controls, and longer AI-generated videos, Google Vids lets you create professional content without the time and cost of traditional video production.
