A paper fox with a red scarf at a pond, ink and marker on warm paper.
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.

  • Transparent & layered export
  • 1080p, generated at full size
  • MP4 or WebM, 16:9, 9:16 or 1:1

For agents

Hand your agent a folder of pictures.

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 docs

Read 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/.
