Everything you need to create, animate, and ship your mascots.

Getting Started

1

Create your mascot

Describe it: Tell us what you want — "a friendly fox wearing headphones" — and our AI generates four unique options. Or scan a website: Paste a URL and we'll design mascots that match your brand colours and personality. Each generation costs 5 credits and takes about 15–30 seconds.

2

Understand credits

New accounts get 30 free credits to start. Generating a mascot set costs 5 credits, animating costs 20 credits (5-second clip) or 40 credits (10-second clip), and refinements cost 5 credits each (your first refinement is free!). Need more? Grab a credit pack or subscribe on the Pricing page.

3

Animate your mascot

Open any mascot from your dashboard, pick an animation preset (wave, dance, celebrate, and more), then hit Animate. Your animation will be ready in 5–8 minutes. Download in any format — WebM, APNG, MP4, MOV, or spritesheet.

Animation Formats

Every animation is available in multiple formats. Pick the one that fits your platform:

FormatBest ForTransparencyFile Size
WebMAndroid, Chrome, web✅ AlphaSmall
APNGiOS, Safari✅ AlphaMedium
MP4Social media, video editing❌ NoSmall
MOV (ProRes)Professional video editing✅ AlphaLarge
SpritesheetGame engines, custom animation✅ AlphaMedium
Tip: Use WebM for Android & Chrome, and include an APNG fallback for iOS & Safari. This covers all major platforms with transparent animations.

Integration Examples

React Native — Image component
import { Image, Platform } from 'react-native';

const mascotSource = Platform.select({
  android: require('./mascot-wave.webm'),
  ios: require('./mascot-wave.apng'),
  default: require('./mascot-wave.webm'),
});

export function Mascot() {
  return (
    <Image
      source={mascotSource}
      style={{ width: 200, height: 200 }}
      resizeMode="contain"
    />
  );
}
HTML / CSS — video + img fallback
<!-- WebM for Chrome/Android, APNG fallback for Safari/iOS -->
<picture>
  <source srcset="mascot-wave.webm" type="video/webm" />
  <img src="mascot-wave.apng" alt="Mascot waving" width="200" />
</picture>

Unity — Spritesheet import

// 2. Select the texture → Inspector:
//    - Sprite Mode: Multiple
//    - Pixels Per Unit: 100
// 3. Open Sprite Editor → Slice → Grid By Cell Count
//    - Set columns & rows (included in download metadata)
// 4. Create Animation from sliced sprites:
//    - Select all frames → drag into Scene
//    - Unity auto-creates an Animation clip

// To play via script:
Animator anim = GetComponent<Animator>();
anim.Play("mascot-wave");

We accept PNG, JPG, and WebP images. For best results, use a transparent PNG so the animation background stays clean.
