Multiverse has partnered with Synthesia to add AI video creation to its AI learning toolkit and expand the use of Synthesia’s software across Multiverse’s UK learner base.
Learners in the Multiverse program will be able to use Synthesia’s video tools when designing and implementing AI projects within their organizations. The toolkit already includes a variety of no-code, low-code, and generative AI products used by employees in sectors such as financial services, public services, and professional services.
A partnership formalizes an existing relationship. Multiverse already uses Synthesia to create some of its own learning content, allowing it to update its learning materials more quickly as AI tools evolve.
Learner examples suggest that this software is already being used in daily work, not just in training exercises. Two local government employees used Synthesia to communicate with residents. One person cut production time in half, the other created accessible content, and transitioned service delivery from support channels to digital channels.
In the insurance industry, customer affairs professionals replaced live manual training for vulnerable customers with standardized AI-generated video modules. This improves consistency, reduces workload, and enhances auditability.
Program directors at international real estate companies also use the software to create multilingual training materials at scale. This approach replaced text-based content and avoided the need for traditional filming and voice-over work.

The partnership comes as employers face pressure to demonstrate practical benefits from AI adoption while training employees to use new tools. Multiverse works with over 30,000 learners and over 1,500 businesses across the UK and is a huge foundation for the adoption of workplace AI products.
Synthesia’s platform is used by more than 65,000 companies worldwide, including 90% of the Fortune 100. The London-based company was founded in 2017 and recently raised US$200 million in a Series E funding round, valuing it at US$4 billion.
Multiverse has also attracted significant backing, raising about $600 million in venture funding. The company calls itself Europe’s only EdTech unicorn.
The deal highlights the growing overlap between workplace learning providers and AI software companies. Rather than limiting AI training to theory and general awareness, employers are increasingly looking for ways to incorporate specific tools into staff workflows to enable them to develop and test projects within their business units.
This is especially true in highly regulated and service-heavy sectors where video is used for internal training, customer communications, and compliance processes. Standardized video content is also attractive to organizations looking for greater consistency in how information is delivered across teams and geographies.
“The true power of AI is when great technology meets human capabilities,” said Ewan Blair, Founder and CEO of Multiverse. “Together with Synthesia, we are turning that vision into reality and putting world-class video AI directly into the hands of learners, enabling them to become creators and innovators. Learners are finding real-world use cases that improve their productivity and drive tangible results. And this is what AI is all about. “That’s how widespread adoption actually happens.”
Victor Riparbelli, co-founder and CEO of Synthesia, said: “We are at a rare inflection point. AI is becoming truly capable, while at the same time upskilling and reskilling the workforce is becoming a board-level priority. The question is not whether organizations need to transform, but how quickly they can build the human capacity to make it happen. Synthesia and Multiverse sit right at that intersection. It means learning to create, communicate, and share knowledge enhanced by .
