NewAn in-house presenter studio from CAQA
A presenter for every lesson. Made in house.
CAQA Avatar turns a script into a video of a presenter saying it. Describe a presenter who does not exist, or use one photo or a short recording of your own people, with their permission. Nothing is uploaded to an outside avatar service and nothing is metered.
Real output, unedited
“Welcome to your course. Over the next few weeks you will build practical skills you can use from day one.”

Three ways to make an avatar
From a sentence, a photo, or a short recording.
Start with whatever you have. A written description needs nobody at all. A photo or a recording brings your own people to the screen.
From a description
Describe a presenter who does not exist: age, look, clothes and setting. Four options are drawn and you keep the ones you like.
No permission neededFrom one photo
One clear photo facing the camera is enough. It becomes a presenter who can say any script you write.
Permission recorded firstFrom a short recording
A short video of a person talking gives the avatar their face and their voice, so it looks and sounds like them.
Permission recorded first
How a video is made
Script in. Presenter out.
Four steps, and the studio does the filming.
- 1
Choose the presenter
Pick from the library, or add a new one from a description, a photo or a short recording.
- 2
Write what they say
Type or paste the script and choose a voice. Australian library voices and your own people's voices are both available. Or supply a recording of the words.
- 3
Choose how it looks
Wide, tall or square. Natural, warm, explaining with gestures, energetic or serious. Captions on or off.

The presenters
People who do not exist, ready to teach.
Every clip below is real output from CAQA Avatar, exactly as it was made. Each presenter began as one sentence of description.

Private by design
Your people's faces stay in house.
Cloud avatar services need photos and recordings of your people on their servers. CAQA Avatar does all of its work on computers CAQA owns.
Faces stay in house
Photos and recordings of your people are kept on CAQA's own computers in Australia. They are not uploaded to an outside avatar service.
Scripts stay in house
Draft assessments, unreleased courses and internal messages are spoken and drawn without leaving our studio.
Permission is recorded
Every avatar of a real person carries a record of who agreed, how and until when. Withdraw it and the avatar stops working.
Real people, real permission
Copying a person is serious. The studio treats it that way.
An avatar can look and sound like one of your trainers. That is only right when they have agreed, and when they can change their mind.
- No avatar of a real person works until its permission is recorded
- Each record says who agreed, how they agreed and until when
- Withdrawing a permission switches the avatar off straight away
- Every finished file notes that the presenter is computer generated
Everything in one studio
From a typed script to a finished presenter video, without a camera.
Presenters made from a description
Need a presenter today? Describe one. The studio draws photorealistic options of a person who does not exist, ready to speak.
An avatar from one photo
A single photo is enough. The studio finds the face, frames it like a presenter shot and brings it to life.
An avatar from a short recording
A short video of someone talking to camera gives the avatar both their look and their voice.
Any script, in a voice your learners know
Type the words. The studio speaks them in an Australian library voice or in the voice of one of your own people, then the presenter says them on screen.
Shape, manner and framing
The same presenter can deliver a course welcome, a safety briefing or a social clip.
Captions and accessible delivery
Captions come from the script itself, so the words on screen are the words you wrote.
Permission, on the record
Copying a real person is a serious thing. The studio treats it that way.
Private by design
Cloud avatar services need your people's faces on their servers. CAQA Avatar does its work on computers CAQA owns.
Compare
Better where it matters to a training organisation.
Cloud avatar services are impressive. They also keep your people's faces on their servers, meter every minute and limit how many avatars you may have.
| What matters | In-house studioCAQA Avatar | Cloud avatar servicessuch as HeyGen and Synthesia, on standard plans |
|---|---|---|
| Where photos and recordings of your people go | They stay on CAQA's own computers in Australia | Uploaded to the provider's servers |
| How you are charged | No minute meter and no credits | Monthly plans with minute or credit limits |
| Watermark | None | Added on free plans and trials |
| Length of a video | No fixed cap. Longer scripts simply take longer to draw | Capped per video on most plans |
| Number of your own avatars | As many as you have permission for | A set number per plan |
| Voices | Australian library voices and your own people, with each sentence checked against the script | Large voice libraries in many languages |

Questions
Good questions, straight answers.
Something else on your mind? Ask us directly or call 1800 266 160.
Is one photo really enough?
Yes. One clear photo facing the camera is enough to make a presenter who can say any script. A short video is better still, because it also gives the avatar the person's own voice.
Are the presenters on this website real people?
No. Every presenter shown here was made from a written description. They do not exist, which is why no permission was needed to show them.
Can you copy a real person?
Only with that person's recorded permission. The studio will not use an avatar of a real person until its permission is on the register, and withdrawing the permission switches the avatar off.
How long does a video take to make?
Each presenter is filmed once, which took about 13 minutes for the presenters on this website. After that, each short sample here took about 67 seconds to make. A 30 second video took about 5 minutes, including recording the voice. A fully drawn studio take, with expression that follows every word, takes much longer and is kept for short clips.
What do we receive?
A finished MP4 video in the shape you chose, with clear sound, plus caption files. Captions can also be shown on the video itself.
Which voices can a presenter use?
Any voice in the CAQA Voice library, including named Australian voices, or the voice of one of your own people added with their permission.
Does a presenter video replace a trainer?
No. It is a way to deliver consistent introductions, briefings and messages. Training and assessment decisions remain with your trainers and assessors.
Is the video marked as computer generated?
Every file notes it in its details. A small visible label can be added to the picture whenever you want one.
Where does our material go?
Nowhere outside CAQA. Scripts, photos and recordings are processed on CAQA's own computers in Australia and are not sent to an outside avatar service.
