Verdict: Synthesia when you need a presenter-led video with no camera or actor — training, compliance, multilingual explainers that change often. Descript when you’re editing footage someone actually recorded. Synthesia’s synthetic delivery works against you for customer-facing brand storytelling — don’t use it there.
