When it makes sense. Keep HeyGen, or challenge it?

Keep if

You produce marketing video content.
You want realistic presenter avatars.

HeyGen becomes worthwhile when

You use it at least once a week
The monthly cost ($25.11) is small next to the time it saves you

Challenge if

You need fine cinematic control.
You're doing long narrative fiction.

HeyGen becomes too expensive when

You use it less than once a month
A simple free version or a tool already in your stack would do
