Imagine any idea in the space around you with AR. Create a 3D model out of anything from a physical object to an entire floor plan, and animate the movement of objects in your space by writing words — not formulas. Animant is AR storytelling designed for everyone.

Animant’s AI features make composing virtual scenes a breeze. Instead of learning complex timelines and structures, all you need to do is focus on the story you’re trying to tell, and ask Animant to create it for you. Speed up model creation just by asking, like “Create a metallic desk one metre long and half a metre tall”. Create interactive animations, like “Change its material to marble when I tap it”. And 3D Scan makes it effortless to bring your real world into your story.

More Features:

Animations: Animate the look and transform of objects and apply interactive triggers, like changing an object’s texture when it’s tapped, or moving its position when another object is in its proximity.

3D Scan: Bring your physical space into your virtual scene in an entirely magical way just using your device’s camera. Create a detailed 3D model from a real object (requires an iPhone or iPad with LiDAR or a Mac for processing), or create a 3D plan of your room (requires iPhone or iPad with LiDAR scanner). You can even combine Room and Object captures to see how furniture would affect your room’s space, and animate it all together with Storyline. 3D scans are fully compatible with USDZ so they're ready for your next big project.

SharePlay: Collaborate with others to create, animate, and experience AR scenes together. With Animant and SharePlay, you can create virtual classrooms to teach complex concepts, capture 3D models from physical rooms and objects to share product designs, and enable an entirely new level of connection no matter where you are in the world.

Screens: View 2D images, PDF documents, or even videos with Spatial Audio right alongside your 3D content.

Textures: Apply images to shapes to give them an appearance that mimics their look in real life. Browse from the expanding selection of textures in the Animant Store, or apply your own regular, or UV-mapped images to your models.

USDZ Support: With Animant Pro, take objects or entire scenes into any other 3D composition app by exporting your objects as a USDZ file — the industry-backed standard for 3D content. Start a project with the benefits of Animant’s simplicity, and take it further in other apps. Or if you want to bring an existing 3D model into Animant, just import it as an Asset.

iCloud Syncing: Start a project on your Mac, edit it on your iPad, view it in AR on your iPhone. Whatever your workflow, Animant keeps your content up to date.

Create unlimited Projects, Assets, Animations, convert your words to basic 3D models, and more with a subscription to Animant Pro.

See your ideas in a way you’ve never seen before.
