+ 120+ languages and accents
+ Emotional control — sad, excited, whispered
+ API for bulk generation
− 30K chars/mo on starter plan is limiting
− Voice cloning can be misused — ethical considerations
− Pro voices require higher tier plans
ngram

+ Supports multiple output formats: 16:9, 9:16, 1:1 in one workflow
− Output quality ceiling lower than human-produced video
− AI narration voices need improvement — occasional robotic cadence
− Customization limited: harder to deviate from AI's layout choices
− Newer platform with smaller template library than Synthesia or HeyGen
