Create personalized welcome, thank-you, and birthday videos with AI avatars. Boost engagement, build loyalty, and turn customers into fans—at scale.
Boost loyalty and engagement with personalized AI videos. Send tailored welcome, thank-you, and birthday messages using realistic AI avatars—by name, in any language, at scale.
Today's customers expect more than transactional interactions. They want brands to recognize them personally, celebrate their milestones, and deliver memorable experiences beyond the buy button.
But here's the challenge: recording hundreds of unique thank-you messages or birthday greetings isn't scalable. Traditional personalized video requires manual editing, expensive shoots, and hours of production time for each variation.
What if you could send every customer a personalized video—addressing them by name, celebrating their specific milestone, in their native language—without recording each one individually?
That's the power of personalized AI videos—realistic, emotionally engaging messages that scale with your customer base, not against it.

Personalized AI videos are video messages that dynamically adapt elements like names, language, voiceovers, or visuals to individual viewers—using artificial intelligence and realistic avatars.
Unlike traditional personalized videos that require manual editing or expensive shoots for each variation, AI makes personalization fast, automated, and scalable.
Viewer's name or company – "Hi Sarah, welcome to [Brand]!"
Location or language – Videos in Spanish, French, German, etc.
Product recommendations – Based on purchase history or browsing behavior
Past purchases or milestones – "Thanks for being with us for 2 years!"
Custom voiceovers – AI voice cloning for brand consistency
Realistic avatars – Real human faces delivering tailored scripts
The technology: Platforms like LipSynthesis use real human avatars—actual people filmed on location—powered by advanced lip-sync and voice synthesis. The result? Videos that feel authentic, trustworthy, and human—not robotic or "too perfect."

Recording hundreds of unique thank-you messages or birthday greetings isn't scalable:
Time-consuming: 30-60 minutes per video (filming + editing)
Expensive: $500-$2,000 per custom video
Unsustainable: Doesn't scale beyond a handful of VIP customers
Using realistic AI avatars, brands can now create custom welcome videos, post-purchase thank-yous, birthday shout-outs, or loyalty messages—all tailored by name, language, or special occasion—at a fraction of traditional costs.
They combine:
Emotionally engaging format (video beats text every time)
Data-driven targeting (personalized to each customer)
Scalability (generate 10 or 10,000 videos with minimal extra cost)
Perfect for: Marketing, sales, onboarding, customer support, retention campaigns, and loyalty programs.

Make a memorable first impression by greeting new customers by name with a warm welcome from your brand spokesperson.
Example: "Hi Maria, welcome to [Brand]! We're thrilled you're here. Whether you're exploring our products or just getting started, we're here to help every step of the way. Let's make something great together!"
Why it works: Sets a positive tone, builds emotional connection, and reduces buyer's remorse.
Result: Welcome videos increase customer lifetime value by 54% (Wyzowl).
After someone buys, send a personal thank-you from your brand spokesperson or founder—not just a generic order confirmation.
Example: "Thanks so much for choosing our skincare line, Michael! We're excited for you to experience the results. If you have any questions about your routine, just reach out—we're here to help!"
Why it works: Reinforces the purchase decision, builds loyalty, and opens the door for support questions.
Pro tip: Include a subtle upsell or cross-sell: "P.S. Many customers pair this with our hydrating serum for even better results."
Surprise customers on their birthday or loyalty anniversary with an AI avatar that personally wishes them well—and maybe includes a special offer.
Example: "Hey Anna, happy birthday from all of us at [Brand]! Hope it's filled with laughter, cake, and everything you love. As a little gift, here's 20% off your next order—enjoy!"
Why it works: Creates emotional moments that customers remember and share. Birthday emails have 481% higher transaction rates than promotional emails (Experian).
Boost response rates by pairing surveys with a friendly face instead of a generic form link.
Example: "Hi James, we hope you're loving your new watch! Could you take 30 seconds to tell us how we did? Your feedback shapes what we do next—and we genuinely want to hear from you."
Why it works: Personalized video requests feel more human and less transactional, increasing survey completion rates by 35% (SurveyMonkey).
Make your top customers feel extra special with personalized invites or offers delivered by name.
Example: "Hi Mark, because you're one of our VIPs, we're giving you early access to our spring collection—plus a little thank-you gift inside! You've been with us since day one, and we don't take that for granted."
Why it works: VIP treatment builds loyalty and encourages repeat purchases. Personalized offers increase conversion rates by 10% (Campaign Monitor).
Build loyalty with festive, human-like messages during holidays—no generic "Happy Holidays from [Brand]" emails.
Example: "Happy holidays, Luis! Wishing you joy, peace, and lots of delicious treats this season. Thanks for being part of our family—we're grateful for customers like you."
Why it works: Emotional connection during holidays strengthens brand affinity and keeps you top-of-mind.
Help customers get more value from what they've bought with tailored tips based on their purchase.
Example: "Hey Priya! Noticed you ordered our espresso machine. Here's a quick tip: for the perfect crema, try using filtered water and a fine grind. Enjoy your coffee journey!"
Why it works: Proactive support reduces returns, increases satisfaction, and positions your brand as helpful (not just transactional).
Recover lost sales by sending a friendly reminder from an AI avatar—not just a generic "You left something behind" email.
Example: "Hi Emma, noticed you left those running shoes in your cart. They're almost gone—and we'd hate for you to miss out. Ready to complete your order? Here's 10% off to sweeten the deal!"
Why it works: Personalized cart abandonment videos increase recovery rates by 26% compared to text-only emails (Vidyard).
Guide new users through setup or key features with personalized video walkthroughs.
Example: "Hi David, welcome to [SaaS Product]! Let me show you the three features our customers love most—starting with [Feature 1]. This will save you hours every week."
Why it works: Video tutorials reduce support tickets by 43% and increase product adoption (TechSmith).
Not all AI avatars are created equal. Most platforms use CGI avatars (computer-generated faces) that can trigger the "uncanny valley" effect—where something looks almost human, but not quite, causing discomfort and distrust.
LipSynthesis uses real human avatars—actual people filmed on location, then digitized for AI video generation.
Factor | CGI Avatars | Real Human Avatars (LipSynthesis) |
|---|---|---|
Trust | Can feel artificial or "too perfect" | Authentic expressions build immediate trust |
Emotional Connection | Often polished to the point of sterility | Natural imperfections feel human and relatable |
Backgrounds | Green screen or generic environments | Real homes, offices, natural settings |
Customer Response | May trigger skepticism ("Is this real?") | Viewers recognize and relate to "real" |
The psychology: For customer-facing videos where emotional connection matters (welcome, thank-you, birthday), real human avatars create genuine warmth that CGI can't replicate.
The data: 88% of consumers say authenticity is important when deciding which brands they like and support (Stackla, 2019). For personalized customer videos, authenticity = loyalty.

People watch longer when the content is "for them." Personalized videos see 35% higher engagement than generic content (Wistia).
Real human avatars look and sound personal—building emotional connections that text and generic videos can't match.
Personalization drives action. Personalized CTAs convert 202% better than generic CTAs (HubSpot).
Reach global audiences in their native languages with accurate lip-sync—no need to hire multilingual spokespeople or re-film for each market.
Generate 10 or 10,000 personalized videos with minimal extra cost. What used to take weeks now takes hours.
AI automates what used to require manual editing, filming, and post-production for each variation.
Time comparison:
Traditional personalized videos: 30-60 minutes per video
AI personalized videos: 30-60 minutes for 100+ videos (processing time varies by video length and server load)
Say their name in the first 5 seconds to grab attention and confirm the video is "for them."
Good: "Hi Sarah, welcome to [Brand]!"
Aim for 30-60 seconds. Respect your customer's time and focus on one clear message or emotion.
Ideal structure:
0-5 seconds: Personalized greeting (name, milestone)
5-45 seconds: Core message (welcome, thank you, celebration, tip)
45-60 seconds: Clear next step or warm closing
Choose an avatar that reflects your brand voice. Friendly e-commerce? Warm, approachable avatar. Professional B2B? Polished, executive-style avatar.
For welcome, thank-you, birthday, and loyalty videos where emotional connection matters, real human avatars (like LipSynthesis) outperform CGI.
Reference specific details: purchase history, loyalty milestones, location, product preferences, or browsing behavior. Show you're paying attention.
Generic: "Thanks for your purchase!" Personalized: "Thanks for choosing our running shoes, Emma! Hope they help you crush your marathon training!"
With unlimited generation (Pro plan), create variations to test:
Different avatars (professional vs. casual)
Different tones (happy vs. calm)
Different CTAs (shop again vs. share feedback)
Different languages for international segments
Automate personalized video delivery based on:
New account signup → Welcome video

"Here's 15% off your next order"
"Share your experience with us"
"Join our VIP community"

The numbers are clear: personalized experiences drive loyalty, engagement, and revenue. But traditional personalization methods (manual editing, expensive shoots, complex automation) don't scale.
AI-powered personalized videos solve this. They let you deliver authentic, emotionally engaging messages to every customer—by name, in their language, at their milestone—without the time, cost, or complexity of traditional video production.
The global AI video market is projected to grow from $3.86 billion in 2024 to over $17 billion by 2030 (Grand View Research, 2024)—and customer experience teams are leading the charge. 78.8% of businesses using AI video report reduced production time, with employees saving an average of 45 hours per month (Synthesia, 2025).
The shift is clear: Brands that embrace personalized AI videos will build deeper customer relationships, drive higher lifetime value, and create memorable experiences that generic content can't match.
No more one-size-fits-all messaging. No more expensive, time-consuming video shoots. Just authentic, scalable personalization that makes every customer feel seen.
Personalized AI videos aren't replacing human connection—they're scaling it. They let you deliver warm, authentic, emotionally engaging messages to every customer at key moments in their journey.
Whether you're welcoming new customers, thanking them for purchases, celebrating birthdays, recovering abandoned carts, or building VIP loyalty, personalized AI videos give you the power to:
Make every customer feel personally valued
Boost engagement by 35% and conversions by 10%
Scale personalization to thousands of customers
Reach global audiences in their native languages
Save 80-90% of video production time
Build emotional connections that drive loyalty
