How to Migrate from Synthesia to Fliki (Step-by-Step)

Last updated: April 2026

Migrating from Synthesia to Fliki can offer significant cost savings, especially for individual creators and small teams, thanks to Fliki's freemium model. While Synthesia excels with its extensive AI avatar library, Fliki provides superior text-to-speech capabilities with 1900+ voice options across 75+ languages, making it ideal for voiceover-focused content. This guide covers the complete migration process, including exporting your Synthesia projects, transferring scripts and assets, adapting to Fliki's interface, and leveraging its AI image generation features. You'll learn how to maintain content quality while potentially reducing your video creation expenses.

Data Transfer Guide

Synthesia doesn't offer direct project export, requiring manual transfer. First, copy all video scripts from Synthesia projects into text files. Download any uploaded media (images, logos, audio) from Synthesia's media library to your computer. Note avatar selections, languages, and background settings for each project. In Fliki, create new projects and paste your scripts. Upload media files to Fliki's library. Select Fliki voices matching your original avatar characteristics—while you lose visual avatars, Fliki's extensive voice library (1900+ options across 75+ languages) provides comparable audio flexibility. Use Fliki's AI image generation or stock library to replace avatar visuals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I transfer my data from Synthesia to Fliki?+
Yes, but not automatically. You must manually export scripts and media from Synthesia, then recreate videos in Fliki. Synthesia doesn't export project files, so direct transfer isn't possible—this is a recreation rather than migration.
How long does migration take?+
For a solo user with 10-20 videos, expect 2-5 days. Time depends on video complexity and how quickly you adapt to Fliki's different approach. Simple voiceover videos migrate faster than complex avatar-based content requiring visual redesign.
Will I lose any features switching to Fliki?+
You'll lose Synthesia's AI avatars—Fliki focuses on voices and visuals instead. However, you gain superior voice variety and AI image generation. Training videos relying heavily on talking heads will need visual redesign using stock footage or generated images.
Can I use both tools during migration?+
Absolutely. Run both subscriptions during transition to test Fliki recreations against Synthesia originals. This parallel approach ensures quality and gives time to train your team. Cancel Synthesia only after confirming all critical content works in Fliki.
Is Fliki cheaper than Synthesia?+
Yes, significantly. Fliki's freemium model starts free, with paid plans from $28/month versus Synthesia's $22-67/month minimum. For comparable features, Fliki typically costs 30-60% less, especially for voice-focused rather than avatar-dependent content.
