@etienn @daryllman Thanks Daryll! It's still in early stage, and there are many things we need to improve, but we think it provides a lot of value already (especially in terms of speed and simplicity). Would love to hear your feedback!
@etienn @emmanuelcharon Thanks Emmanuel! We've had great feedback so far, and yet there are so many things we want to improve! Now back to work ^^
@etienn @megaroeny Hi Reony! Thanks for your message :) We take a different approach in.a few ways:
- you can use media and text (→ not limited to SVG)
- there are no keyframes, everything works with actions / instructions (→ this makes it easier to understand)
- you can use animation presets that are customizable (→ easy to prototype an animation in a few clicks, and then to refine it)
- you can export as GIF and video (→ no code for now, but we'd like to add Lottie soon)
Does it make sense? Would love to hear your thoughts on these :)
As for the Figma compatibility, we'll be working on a Figma import / plugin soon!

My team and I have been looking for a simple tool for a while. I am sure this gonna meet our goals. Thank you for the work and all the best!
@ishwarjha Thanks Ishwar! Glad this can help, and please get back to us after your team plays a bit more with the tool, we'd love to learn how we can improve it for you :)
After trying Jitter, it becomes a no-brainer for your animation. I've been following the team for a while now & I can't wait to see more!
@arthurcoudouy Thanks Arthur! Yes, we've got a lot of exciting new features coming up 😃
Jitter is the next go-to tool for visual creation.
As a priviledged early beta user I made an animation logo for my last product hunt launch, this would have never been possible without Jitter in such a short period of time.
@chnsydney Thanks a lot for your support Sydney! We loved your first creation, can't wait to see the next ones!
I have been a huge follower of @robi's work and Jitter does not fail to deliver. It is a brilliantly easy animator and can suffice for anyone's desire to create their motion designs.
The predecessor to Jitter introduced me to the beta version of Jitter and though the subscription model is worth it for those who are more committed to continually creating animated graphics, it is a little bit much for me.
There is a free testing environment where you can create and explore Jitter's environment without subscribing, and thus allowing anyone to try it before subscribing!
Looking forward to seeing Jitter grow even more!
@hans_husurianto1 Thank you so much for your kind comment Hans, we've been really grateful to work with you along the way to build this tool, you provide really great feedback :) Thanks again for your support and talk soon for the new features!
Wow - just tried the tool and it makes motion design so simple. Seems like a very obvious idea (« why don’t we have this already? » ) so it will boil down to execution which seems flawless so far. What’s next on the roadmap?
@robin_choy Thanks Robin! Here are a couple of exciting things right ahead:
- Animated components that you can use in 1 click and customize (like a company logo, a “get it on the App Store” button or more advanced titles / subtitles effects)
- Cascading animations
- Simple 3D models (phones, computers…) so you can make a demo of your app / website in situ
- Real-time collaboration
- and much more…
But most importantly: how could we improve Jitter for you / your team, so that we can prioritize the right things? Thanks!
Sleek app.
Signed up. Gallery has all the things needed to get start. Pricing is quite humble. Super app. Used the power of web. Kudos.
PS: Adobe may be tracking your progress. Buckle Up.
@sanket_makhija Thanks Sanket! Yes the video / motion / animation community is pretty active these days, and this is great, can't wait to see where this leads us all :)
I was just googling for something like this yesterday! Super cool - can't wait to check it out. Congrats and best of luck.
@aj_alkasmi Awesome! May I ask what you need animation for? Would love to know more about your specific use cases so we can make sure to improve the product in the right direction! 🙏
@robi Sure thing!
I'm actually preparing for a PH launch in a month or so for my startup, and was looking for a tool to help me 'animate' my logo so I could post a cool gif instead of a png of the logo. Couldn't find something I could use myself easily, so I figured I'd have to find someone from Fiverr. Now, I'm going to check out Jitter to see if I can do it that way! :)
@aj_alkasmi Of course, here is the link https://jitter.video/file/?id=ic... :)
@robi Thanks Sebastien! That's awesome. I was playing around with Jitter yesterday and love it. Was able to make a gif of my logo exactly the way I was hoping! However, I'm running into some problems with the export.
Do you have a support email I could reach out to / a way I can DM you directly?
Cool one! Very creative and unique idea! Congrats for launch 👏
Would love to hear more what you guys are planning to do on your product?
@prerna_bagree Thanks Prerna! We have so many exciting things ahead :) Just to name a few: multi-artboard, animated components, cascading animations… as well as improving general usability. Would love to learn more about what you plan to use it for: can you tell us more about your use cases? Thanks a lot! 🙏
Such an easy to use product and packed with features! Been looking for a product like Jitter for a while now!
@bruceldn Thanks Adam! Glad this is useful to you :) We'd love to learn more about what you need to create, feel free to reach out to us to tell us more about your use cases – we'd love to improve the product for you.
It`s not a primitive micro low-functional versioan as you expect. It is very light, but has all the features of a larger software in slick design. Bravo!
Used it for Metasurvey PH image to look cool on launch!
Awesome tool and its FREE!
@stanui Thank you so much for the kind words Stan! Excited to bring more crazy stuff to the product soon :)
Amazing is what I think. Made a quick gif from a design file in like less than 5min. Quick way to express animated ideas. Good stuff.. Figma import would be amazing!!
Hey @nqobile_vundla!
Good news, we're starting to release a beta version of our Figma plugin: https://www.notion.so/jitter/Jit.... After you give it a try, we'd love to know what we should improve to facilitate the import, so you can reach out to us at figma.plugin@jitter.video anytime with your feedback :)
Thanks again and talk soon!
Hey @nqobile_vundla! Just a heads-up, the Jitter plugin is now available on Figma Community: https://www.figma.com/community/...
Would love to hear what you think!
Amazing product! I have been looking into animation tool for a while. Do you think the product would ever move into the direction as a plugin for figma or sketch? Would love to see animation working in a final prototype!
@lawly_popp Hi Jasmine! We have that in the works, this has been a pretty common request :)

Hey @lawly_popp,
And there it is: the Figma Community page for our plugin! https://www.figma.com/community/... Can't wait to hear your feedback :)
@etienn @coffeestacker Thank you so much Melissa! Your support along the way has been invaluable to us, thanks again for your help :)
This is amazing! As a content creator (YouTube), this is exactly what I have been looking for. It will allow me to re-purpose existing content for other channels very easily and make it feel native to those platforms.
Thank you! Keep it up :)
@sunebthorsen Awesome Sune! Please feel free to reach out to us anytime after you try the tool a bit more: we'd love to learn how we can improve it for you :)
Been using this since early beta. Only take only a few minutes to make something that would take hours in AE, this is amazing!
@copypastaa Thanks for following us from the beginning Sylvain!!
Super easy to remix one of the examples and apply your own branding and style. Next step is to start a motion from scratch but the learning curve doesn't look too steep !
@adri1dupuy That's the idea Adrien, thanks for your comment! Yes the goal is to make motion design easier, faster & cheaper – still a lot of things to do to get there, but I hope we're on a good start :)
I've used the Jitter Beta for my product marketing, it's a total game changer! Within 5 minutes I get a slick and smooth animation customized to my company brand identity and copy, and from there tweaking everything to the last detail is super intuitive and fun. In terms of media creativity tools, motion design is one of the hardest UX challenges to tackle, and Jitter makes it truly accessible not just to all designers but even product marketers. Lottie exports (for landing pages) is top of my wish list. Highly recommended.
@jeffboudier Thanks for your feedback and for your support along the way Jeff! Lottie export is definitely on the roadmap :)
Congrats on the launch, this is a really solid MVP. I used it for creating an animated logo. Really like how simple it is to add up several animations in sequence. I first had a look at after effect but the learning curve is huge.. ?makers what pricing do you have in mind?
@arthur_bonnecarrere Thanks for your feedback Arthur! For now, the paid plan includes HD exports. The rest of the tool is entirely free, as we want to optimize for the creation :) Later, we would like to charge for professional needs: e.g. 4K exports, big media storage on our servers, and 3+ editors / collaborators. Do you have other models in mind?
This is awesome, I've always wanted to add animation to my websites, this makes it so easy. Congrats on the launch!
@maithdeeb Thanks Maitham! Looking forward to see all your productions 😃
