"The round was led by Google Ventures , with participation from existing investors, underscoring continued appetite for applied AI products that have already found a clear commercial use. Synthesia builds generative AI tools that let companies create videos using AI-generated avatars instead of cameras, studios, or presenters. The technology has found a strong foothold in corporate training, internal communications, and product explainers, areas where speed, scale, and consistency often matter more than production gloss."
"That focus appears to be paying off. Synthesia says a significant share of Fortune 100 companies now use its platform, a rare level of enterprise penetration for a European AI startup at this stage. Rather than chasing consumer virality, the company has built its business around predictable, high-value enterprise use cases, a strategy investors have increasingly rewarded over the past year."
Synthesia closed a $200 million Series E round that nearly doubled its valuation to around $4 billion, led by Google Ventures with existing investor participation. The company provides generative AI tools that create videos using AI-generated avatars, replacing cameras, studios, and presenters. The technology targets corporate training, internal communications, and product explainers where speed, scale, and consistency outweigh production polish. A significant share of Fortune 100 companies use the platform, reflecting strong enterprise adoption. The funding arrives as generative AI shifts from experimentation to integration, with a pitch that AI video should be routine, updatable, and globally deployable.
