Elai.io is a compact studio that covers the basics well. Its Creator plan costs $29 per month, or $23 billed annually, and includes 15 minutes of Full HD video a month, the full avatar, voice and language library and features such as URL-to-video, an AI Storyboard that drafts scripts from prompts or documents, a screen recorder and one-click translation. Interactive branching, buttons, hotspots and text-based quizzes are listed for training use. Team at $125 per month adds 3 editors and 3 guests, 50 minutes, 4K export, premium voices and one Selfie Avatar with a voice clone, and a studio avatar from footage costs $500 a year. The free plan gives a single minute to test everything. The catch is volume: per-minute pricing works out to about $1.93 a minute on monthly Creator, and SCORM export, SSO and the brand kit are reserved for Enterprise, so larger L&D teams may outgrow it.
Who it is for
Small training and marketing teams that make a modest number of avatar videos each month.
Price
