Our verdict
Both are solid choices for real estate agents. Overall we give the edge to Descript — agents editing their own talking-to-camera videos. That said, HeyGen is worth a look if camera-shy agents who still want consistent video content. If budget is your main concern, Descript has the lower barrier to entry (From $16/month (Hobbyist plan)).

HeyGen creates AI avatar and talking-head videos from text, so agents can produce market-update and personal-brand videos without filming. You can even create a custom avatar of yourself, letting you 'record' new videos by typing a script.
