A short film
A little drawing. A bigger story.
Scroll, and it draws. Scroll back, and it undraws. Six scenes, one fox, one pen.
It starts with a picture you already have.
Pro export
Made to sit on top of your edit.
Export just the drawing on a transparent background, or every layer separately, and place it over your own footage in Premiere, Final Cut, DaVinci or CapCut.

For agents

Claude Code, Codex or Cursor can run AI whiteboard animation on every picture in a folder through the API. Same credits as the Studio; comes with Pro.
Read the API docsRead https://whiteboardanimation.ai/llms.txt and use the Whiteboard Animation API, with the key in the WHITEBOARD_API_KEY environment variable as the Bearer token, to turn every picture in ./scenes into a drawing. Save each drawing's download links to ./clips/.
Nothing opens? The app may not be installed. Copy the prompt and paste it into your agent. Your API key is never included.

Good to know
Questions people ask.
One finished picture — PNG, JPEG or WebP, up to 10 MB. Illustrations, diagrams and flat artwork work best.
Yes. A new account starts with 5 free credits, and one credit draws one picture. Free exports carry a watermark and are at most 720p. Paid plans add credits every month, and credit packs last 90 days.
About fifteen seconds before it starts to draw. The video is as long as you choose, and saving it takes a few seconds more.
Pro includes a commercial licence: use your clips in client work, ads and paid courses. Free and Starter clips are for personal and non-commercial use.
Anything you drew before pricing launched is kept for good. On the free plan, a newer drawing leaves your library 7 days after you last work on it (hidden, not deleted); paid plans keep every drawing. Only you can see them.
If a drawing fails, its credits come back automatically. You can cancel any time from Billing & plan; your plan stays active until the end of the period you paid for. If a charge looks wrong or something didn’t work, email hello@celados.com within 14 days and we’ll make it right, including a refund.
No. It runs in a desktop browser — Chrome, Edge or Safari. Phones can watch; saving the video needs a desktop for now.
