See the method and sourcesDiane turns your listing into a real estate video. HeyGen starts by filming your face.
In Diane, a video starts with a listing: its details, its photos, its script and its sequences. You review everything before rendering, you decide whether you appear on screen, and you get the vertical and the horizontal cut from the same project. Nothing has to be recorded first.
HeyGen presents a general-purpose AI video platform with a dedicated real estate offering. Its public workflow opens with fifteen seconds on camera to capture your face and voice, then offers four ready-made formats.[20][22]

Short answer
Choose Diane if you want the best AI real estate video on the market
Every video starts from a listing and has to stay reviewable: prepared photos, script, sequences, on-screen presence and formats gathered in a single project. You produce a property video without building a digital twin of yourself first.
Two starting points, two products
Diane opens on the property. You import or type in the listing, you prepare its photos, then the script and the sequences are built around those details. The agent's presence is one option out of three: your avatar, the Diane avatar, or nobody on screen.
HeyGen's public workflow opens on the agent. Its three stated steps are the fifteen-second recording, picking a format, then posting. Its listing spotlight format does start from existing photos, but the video is still built around the presenter.[20]
These two approaches answer different questions. "How do I show this property" on one side, "how do I show up every week" on the other. Your recurring task decides.

What Diane covers
Diane covers the full path of a listing: importing or typing in the details, preparing the photos, script, sequences, voice, presence, rendering and distribution. Importing runs through the Diane Chrome extension, which pulls photos and property details in one click from a listing page. Every step stays editable before the final render.
Nothing has to be recorded to get started. Your first video can run with nobody on screen, with the Diane avatar, or with your own if you decide to create it.
The public interface exists in English and French, and 42 languages are available for creation, narration and subtitles.
What HeyGen covers
HeyGen documents a scope that reaches past the real estate listing: avatars, video translation, a script studio, a video agent, training and marketing content. Its real estate page offers four ready-made formats, including a listing spotlight built from existing photos.[20][22]
Its public offering announces more than 175 languages and dialects, 4K export from the Pro plan up, team seats and API pricing. Diane covers none of those four. That is where, and only where, the decision goes to HeyGen.[21][22]
Its done-for-you service is announced for users located in the United States only.[20]
