Upload a clip to create your own avatar

Generic avatars are useful, but they are not you. For a personal brand, the presenter on screen is part of the message — people connect with a face they recognize. The dream has always been to clone yourself: to have a digital version that can record videos while you do something else.

AIR Workspace makes that possible. With HeyGen's photo and video avatar technology, you can upload a clip and create a personalized avatar that looks like you and speaks in your own voice.

How it works

The process starts with a sample. You record or upload a short video of yourself, and the platform uses it to build a digital twin — an avatar that mirrors your appearance and can be paired with a clone of your voice.

From that point forward, you do not need to record again. You write a script, and your avatar delivers it. The same face, the same voice, every time. What used to require sitting down and filming becomes a matter of typing.

Your voice, not just your face

An avatar that looks like you but sounds like a stranger breaks the illusion immediately. That is why the voice matters as much as the face. AIR Workspace pairs your visual avatar with voice cloning, so the presenter on screen sounds the way you do.

The combination is what makes the result feel authentic. Viewers are not watching a stand-in; they are watching you — or a version of you faithful enough that the distinction stops mattering for the message you are delivering.

What it unlocks

A personal avatar changes the economics of being on camera. You can scale your presence — publishing daily without filming daily. You can produce content in moments you would never want to be on camera. You can localize yourself into other languages while keeping your own look and voice.

For creators, founders, coaches and educators, this is the difference between content being a constant production burden and content being something you can generate on demand. Your face becomes an asset you can deploy, not a schedule you have to keep.

Built on consent and control

Cloning yourself is powerful, which is why it should be intentional. The avatar is built from material you provide, of yourself, with your consent. It is your likeness, under your control, used for the content you choose to create.

That principle keeps the feature firmly on the right side of the line: it is a tool for amplifying your own presence, not for impersonating anyone else.

The bottom line

Uploading a clip to create your own avatar turns AIR Workspace into a personal video studio that never needs you in front of a camera twice. It captures your look and your voice, then lets you generate as much on-brand video as you want. For anyone whose face is part of their brand, it is one of the most powerful things you can do inside the workspace.
