KnowBe4 has introduced its latest custom AI Video Builder feature. This new tool enables security administrators to produce custom, AI-generated training videos within minutes. Furthermore, teams deploy these modules directly into their existing security awareness training programs. The innovation expands KnowBe4’s AI-native customization suite through a strategic partnership with Synthesia.
Cybercriminals now leverage generative AI to create highly targeted social engineering attacks. These attacks specifically target unique employee roles, regional units, and specialized workflows. Consequently, traditional security training materials often fail to address these rapidly shifting threat vectors. KnowBe4 designed the AI Video Builder specifically to bridge this crucial defense gap.
Through the ModStore platform, eligible customers can activate a prepaid Synthesia Starter License instantly. This annual license provides a $250 value at no additional charge to subscribers. Therefore, security administrators generate up to 120 minutes of narrated training video each year. The system offers over 120 distinct AI avatars and supports more than 160 global languages.
Greg Kras, Chief Product Officer at KnowBe4, highlighted the primary strategic vision behind the technology:
“Generative AI has given attackers the ability to build campaigns around the exact policies, roles and regions where training doesn’t yet exist,” said Greg Kras, Chief Product Officer, KnowBe4. “Custom AI Video Builder closes that window by putting studio-quality video production directly inside the KnowBe4 platform, so customers can go from a new threat to a finished training module without waiting on a production cycle. It’s one more way we’re helping security teams match the speed of the threats they’re defending against.”
Seamless Integration Across Native Customization Tools
In addition, the tool integrates natively with KnowBe4’s Content Creation Agent platform. This connection allows administrators to layer studio-quality video directly onto text-based training courses. Moreover, this feature works alongside the Deepfake Training Content Agent within the ModStore. Together, these three capabilities form an integrated, AI-native content customization suite. When it’s done, the AI Video Builder sends the videos to the Uploaded Content library. This automated workflow eliminates the manual work of downloading and uploading files.
Busy IT teams also benefit from simplified content deployment via the automated SCORM ingestion pipeline. Administrators can create unique multimedia content without needing to hire outside video production companies. And with dubbing capabilities around the globe, multinational corporations can effectively target localized workforces. Therefore, organizations see high training retention rates with significantly shorter video production timelines. “With the AI Video Builder, enterprises can stay ahead of today’s AI-powered cyber threats.
Equipping Global Enterprises with Agile Cyber Defence
Global operations and diverse teams are supported by extensive multi-language dubbing options in the software. Security officers create learning paths for specific departments, operational policies, and regional compliance requirements. The result is highly relevant micro-learning modules that focus on immediate security concerns for employees. The AI Video Builder turns complicated production steps into an easy, automated creation process. Organizations can also instantly update training courses as new threat intelligence is released. The agile approach helps to prevent successful social engineering attempts on vulnerable departments.
KnowBe4 now provides this capability to customers on a range of premium subscription tiers. These include Platinum, Diamond, Training-Only Diamond, SAT Foundation, and SAT Advanced plans. Eligible administrators can immediately claim their prepaid Synthesia license inside the ModStore dashboard. By deploying the AI Video Builder, KnowBe4 continues to strengthen digital workforce security worldwide. Furthermore, the company reinforces its position as an industry leader in workforce risk management. Ultimately, the enterprise platform equips global organizations to defend both human personnel and AI agents.
