I tested the best AI lip sync tools to see which ones actually make your videos look real.
Some blew me away. Some didn’t. Here are the best ones that I found.

Top Picks
Here are my top picks for three of the most common use cases for lip-syncing:
👉 1. OmniHuman: Image-to-Video Lip-Sync
👉 2. HeyGen: Best for Translation Lip-Sync
👉 3. Kling: Best for Short Video-to-Video
1. OmniHuman

OmniHuman makes faces move naturally.
It syncs speech with mouth shapes that feel real.
This tool is great for high-end animation or realistic avatars.
I tested it on OpenArt, which is where I recommend you sign up, since it provides you with all lip sync, video, and image AI models.
My Experience
First of all, here you can check the result I got from this tool.
Isn’t that cool?
Now, let me show you how you can do the same.
First, sign up for OpenArt to access Omnihuman.

Then choose the video option from the left and select “Lip-Sync Video”.

Then pick “OmniHuman” from the list.

Then, all you need to do is upload an image of the person you want to feature and an audio clip from which the talking is extracted.

Here’s my image and my clip:

Then just hit create and wait for a minute.

Pros
- Smooth and natural lip movement
- Handles emotion well
- Works across languages
Cons
- Slow rendering for detailed faces
- Needs a clean input video
- Can get expensive
2. Fabric

Fabric helps you make animated faces talk.
It’s simple to use and built for quick results.
I recommend using this model via the Krea AI platform.
Let me show you my experience and results with it.
My Experience
First of all, here’s the result I got from Fabric.
To do the same, visit their website and sign up.
Then pick a model. In this case, let’s go with Fabric.

Then, upload your target image and the audio clip to the views.

Hit generate.

And just wait.

It took about 2–3 minutes for the AI to create a 5-second clip for me. So the longer your clip, the more time it’s going to take. Just be prepared!
Pros
- Easy to use
- Fits creative workflows
- Nice interface
Cons
- Not as realistic as the more professional tools
- Few fine-tuning options
- Paid plan for full quality
3. Hedra

Next up, we have an AI lip-sync tool called Hedra.
Similar to the previous tools, this one turns still faces into moving ones.
It focuses on syncing lips and expressions automatically.
Let me show you how to use it and what kinds of results I got from it.
My Experience
First of all, here’s my AI lip-sync result I got from this tool.
Now, to do the same, visit Krea AI again. It’s the same AI-lip sync tool we just used.
But this time, make sure to change the model to Hedra instead of Fabric.

Then upload your image and audio clip.

Hit generate and wait.
Once again, this is a bit of a slower model. I had to wait for surprisingly long when I tested this one with a longer clip.
Also, what makes matters worse is that there is a percentage bar, but it never moves the right way. This way, there’s no way to tell how long you have to wait.
I was sure that the app had crashed with one of my projects. But then, after an hour or so, all of a sudden, it gave me results.
Pros
- Fast and easy to use
- Automates facial motion
- Saves time for animators
Cons
- Limited control
- Sometimes looks robotic
- Output quality can vary
4. OpenArt

OpenArt adds lip sync to its AI art tools. You can make still images talk in seconds.
My Experience
Here’s the result I got from this tool.
To do this, just sign up to OpenArt (if you haven’t already). Then choose the video option from the left.

Click the “Lip-Sync Video” feature.

Choose OpenArt’s own model from the list.

And upload your image and audio.

Notice that here you can give details for the AI for the clip. For example, you can tell the AI to “Make the character stand up while speaking” or something similar to give it some action.
However, even though this is possible, it’s not necessarily great. I tested it, and the results mostly turned out completely uncanny and unnatural.
Pros
- Works inside a full creative suite
- Quick talking-image setup
- Easy for beginners
Cons
- Limited realism
- Short audio support
- Some features are locked behind paywall
5. Lipsync.Video

Lipsync.Video is a free tool that syncs voice with video or images.
It’s made for simple and fast results, and since it’s free, why not give it a try?
Let me show you how to use it and what kinds of results I got from it.
My Experience
Here’s my result that I got from this free lip-sync AI.
To use it, just drop your target image on their website.

Then pick an audio clip and drop it into this view:

Or you can also record your audio on the spot.

Then just hit create.

But as you can see from the result, this tool is just not that good. It’s free, so that’s pretty cool. But the results just aren’t there.
Pros
- Free to use
- Fast processing
- Works with audio, image, or video
Cons
- File size limits
- Only supports one face
- Basic customization
- Very poor results, honestly
But don’t stop reading yet!
I will actually not introduce any worse tools. But at this stage, let’s switch the category from these lip-sync tools to AI dubbing/translation lip-sync tools.
6. HeyGen

HeyGen AI makes avatars talk. It’s best known for the presentations and AI cloning features.
But one service that’s also really useful there is called the AI Translate feature.
Unlike the previous tools, this one is a video-to-video lip-sync tool.
In other words, you can input a video where you’re talking in English, and you’ll get back a video where you talk fluent Chinese.
Yes, that’s true. If you don’t believe me, just keep on reading. I will show you how to do this for free and what kinds of results I got from it.
My Experience
Here’s the translated clip I created with HeyGen.
Notice that this was in English originally.
That’s pretty crazy to me! I honestly don’t know why people are not talking about HeyGen more. Yes, it’s popular, but I think it’s one of the more impressive tools out there.
Nonetheless, let me show you how to use it.
First, sign up for HeyGen AI.
Then choose “Translate Video”.

Then select the Hyper-Realistic Translation from the options.

Then upload your video.

Choose the target language.

And wait for the AI to translate and lip-sync your video.

The craziest part here is that this is free to use. You can translate/dub up to 3 minutes of footage free.
This gives you a good idea of whether you should invest in it or not.
I love it and still wonder why not more people are hyping this up!
Pros
- Easy to use, free!
- Great for business or content creators
- Smooth avatar motion
- Strong voice options
Cons
- Paid plans only for full access
- Limited face control
- Needs good input audio
7. Kling

Kling AI has a video-to-video AI lip-syncing feature.
Unlike the previous tools on the list, this lets you change audio from an existing clip to something else.
Let me show you how to use it and my results.
My Experience
Here’s my result that I got from this tool.
That’s pretty cool, huh? It changed the audio from the original clip pretty flawlessly.
To use Kling to lip-sync your videos, just go to OpenArt. Pick the Lip-Sync Video option and choose “Kling” from the list.

Then upload a video to the view. Notice that you can also upload an image, but this one is for video-to-video use.

Pros
- Accurate phoneme sync
- Built for animation workflows
- Easy to use via OpenArt
Cons
- Fewer advanced options
- Smaller user base
- Less documentation
- Pricey
