# iArt.ai — AI Motion Graphics Software
> iArt.ai is AI motion graphics software that generates broadcast-quality animations from text prompts, images, designs, and voice inputs. The After Effects alternative that anyone can use — no animation skills required.
## What is iArt.ai?
iArt.ai is an AI-powered motion graphics software that turns any combination of text, images, PDFs, audio tracks, and web links into professional animated videos. Unlike After Effects (manual keyframing, months of learning) or template tools like Vyond (drag-and-drop, limited styles), iArt's AI agent understands your intent and builds the film scene by scene in minutes.
iArt runs two engines. **Animation** writes the film as code with Claude Opus 5.5: text is typeset (exact spelling, any font), data is drawn from your numbers, shapes and hand-drawn layers are rendered frame by frame, sound effects and music can be synthesized in code, and a copy or color change is one sentence and a regenerate. **AI Video** is a generative video engine for a filmed look — neon on a wet wall, 3D letters in a street, a product turning under studio light; the model draws the letterforms itself, so spelling can drift, and the agent warns about that and offers the typeset route when the words must be exact. Describe what you want and the agent picks the engine; you can override either way.
Traditional animated explainer videos cost $5,000–$50,000 and take 3–6 weeks. iArt creates a 30-second multi-scene explainer in about five minutes from a text brief; longer films take longer.
Adobe After Effects requires 300+ hours of tutorials to produce client-ready motion graphics, charges $22.99 per month, and forces manual keyframing of every property on every layer. iArt.ai generates the same category of output — logo animations, kinetic typography, title sequences, data visualizations, and explainer content — from a plain-English text prompt in a few minutes, with no keyframes, no timeline, and no learning curve.
## Core Capabilities
- Text-to-motion-graphics: describe any animation in plain language
- Design-to-animation: upload images, SVG logos, PDFs, slides (PPTX), video clips, CSV data, or brand assets; paste a URL and the agent reads the page
- Voice and music: built-in TTS voices in all nine supported languages (English, Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Arabic, Korean) or clone your own voice (3 clones on Pro, 10 on Ultra), with BGM mixing; upload a song and lyrics sync to the vocals or the beat
- Change by describing: "make the title two seconds shorter" edits the animation code and re-renders with the rest intact
- Two engines: Animation (code written by Claude Opus 5.5: typeset text, exact data, every frame rendered from code, sound synthesized in code) and AI Video (generative, filmed look)
- Export: MP4 — 1080p on Pro, 4K on Ultra — in 16:9, 9:16, or 1:1 (AI Video also 4:3, 3:4, 21:9); Animation overlays (lower thirds, corner bugs) export as a transparent WebM; free accounts preview and share a link
## Use Cases
iArt generates the motion graphics categories designers traditionally build in After Effects, ranked by demand:
- **Logo animations and brand reveals** — 2-second stingers, 10-second idents, particle reveals, liquid morphs. Highest-volume category.
- **Kinetic typography** — bold type reveals generated in a few minutes instead of hours of manual text layer keyframing; a filmed look (neon, ink, 3D letters) via the AI Video engine.
- **Title sequences** — cinematic film titles, opening credits, end slates. Scales to 9:16, 1:1, or 16:9 natively.
- **Social media motion content** — Instagram Reels, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube Shorts. One video per day sustainably.
- **Data visualizations** — animated infographics, bar charts, line graphs, radial dashboards from a description and your data.
- **Animated explainer content** — product tours, concept videos, enterprise training. Longer form: see /explainer-video.
- **Code-rendered animation** — explainers, stories, and channel intros rendered frame by frame from JavaScript, via the Animation engine: see /javascript-animation.
- **Lower thirds and overlays** — name titles and corner bugs on a transparent background, drawn by the Animation engine and exported as a transparent WebM for OBS or video editors: see /lower-thirds.
- **Stinger transitions** — scene transitions for OBS that cover the screen and clear, drawn by the Animation engine with the channel name as real text and exported as a transparent WebM, with the transition point to set: see /stinger-transition.
- **Subscribe button animations** — subscribe, like and bell reminders with the channel name as real text, drawn by the Animation engine on a transparent background (no green screen) and exported as a transparent WebM: see /subscribe-button-animation.
- **B-roll for talking-head videos** — upload a recording of someone talking to camera; the Animation agent transcribes it, decides line by line whether to show the speaker, lay a graphic over them, or cover them with a full-screen scene, and draws numbers, charts and diagrams from what they say. The recording is never cut: see /ai-b-roll-generator.
