In this post, we’ll explore the top platforms, what makes each shine, how you can use them and yes, how you might affiliate them
What to look for in an AI video tool
Before diving into specific tools, here are the criteria that matter (so you can evaluate any new one you spot):
- Ease of use: Minimal learning curve; quick from idea → video
- Automation & AI features: Text-to-video, avatar/voice generation, auto-captions, scene suggestions
- Output quality: Good visuals, smooth motion, believable audio/voice overs
- Affordability and plan structure: Free trial or low cost; scalable for your business
- Use case match: Explainer videos, social shorts, training, marketing, etc
- Affiliate potential: Does the tool have an affiliate/referral program (or can you recommend it to your audience)?
Top AI Video Tools You Should Consider
1. Synthesia – Best for avatar-led explainer/training videos
Why it stands out:
- Turns text into video using realistic AI avatars. Cybernews+1
- Supported by a large library of avatars and languages, great for international audiences. Cybernews
- Ideal for coaches, trainers, marketers who want “talking-head style” videos without filming themselves.
Use case for you/Ziflite: Offer your coaching-niche clients walkthrough videos, onboarding videos, or course intros that you craft quickly with Synthesia, you can upsell the “video module” of their site.
Affiliate angle: Many such platforms have affiliate programs, check if Synthesia offers one, and then you can recommend it as “we used this tool for your site’s video section”.
2. InVideo – Best for social media & repurposing content
Why it stands out:
- Lets you create videos from text, script, or blog content; strong templates for YouTube, Instagram, etc. Vizologi+1
- Good mix of ease + speed, great for short-form content or repurposing existing assets.
Use case: For your Ziflite blog or YouTube channel (Ziflite Studio), you could convert blog posts into short video clips for promotion. Also, your clients (coaches) can use it to create social-clip versions of their longer webinars.
Affiliate angle: Recommend “InVideo” in your blog/video tutorials as a tool to quickly create marketing videos, then link via your affiliate link.
3. Pictory – Best for text-to-video from blog or article content
Why it stands out:
- Specifically strong for converting long-form text (blogs, articles) into videos. unscript.ai+1
- Automated captions, voice-overs, stock visuals.
Use case: Since you’re producing blog content (Zeflite Tech, etc.), you could “dual-use” your blog posts: turn them into short engaging videos using Pictory and embed/share them. That adds value for your audience and shows your all-in-one web solution mindset.
Affiliate angle: Position Pictory as “turn your blog into a video in minutes” great hook for coaches who blog and want video outreach.
4. Runway Gen‑4 – Best for cinematic text-to-video & creative control
Why it stands out:
- More advanced: text-to-video model, more creative and cinematic output. Wikipedia
- Good for marketers and creators who want a higher production look without full video crews.
Use case: For high-end promo videos for your Ziflite clients (premium plan) where they want something standout. You could outsource or guide them in using Runway.
Affiliate angle: For more advanced clients or creators, you present Runway as “the next level” and include affiliate link.
5. Lumen5 – Best for repurposing blog content to video rapid
Why it stands out:
- Especially oriented toward turning blog or article content into video. atlassian.com
- Storyboard automation, drag-and-drop visuals, more approachable for beginners.

How to Choose for Your Specific Needs
| Scenario | Best tool(s) | Why |
|---|---|---|
| You need quick social media clips from blog posts or text | InVideo, Pictory, Lumen5 | Speed + minimal video skills |
| You’re doing explainer/training videos for a coaching client | Synthesia | Avatars + multi-language + professional look |
| You want premium cinematic promo videos for premium clients | Runway Gen-4 | Creative control + high-end output |
| You want to upsell video content in your Ziflite web packages | Combine 2-3 tools, pick what fits client budget | Offer tiered video add-ons (basic social clip vs full promo) |
Affiliate & Monetisation Tips
- Always check whether the tool has a formal affiliate/referral program. Many do.
- Create content (blog posts, YouTube videos) reviewing “how I used Tool X in 10 minutes to create a video” — this adds value and builds trust.
- For your niche (coaches + small businesses), emphasise the pain points: “No camera, no studio, no editing hours” → “Now you can launch your video in less than an hour”.
- Offer bundled packages: When a client signs up for a Ziflite website, include “1 social-video made with InVideo (or Pictory)”. Use that to cross-sell.
- Use your blog (Zeflite Tech) to publish “best AI video tools for coaches” list and embed your affiliate links.
Final Thoughts
Video is no longer reserved for high-budget production houses. With AI-powered tools, you can create, edit, and launch videos quickly, even if you’re a solo entrepreneur or building websites for clients like coaches. For your Ziflite Studio mission (websites + automation + marketing), these tools are perfect complements: add video-creation to your stack, drive more value for clients, and unlock additional revenue streams (affiliate + service upsell).
