Is Animaitor free to use?

Yes. You can upload an SVG, generate a full gallery of animated logo presets, and export GIF or WebM with no watermark and no signup.

What file formats can I upload?

SVG today. Adobe Illustrator (.ai) and EPS support is rolling out — for now, export your file as SVG from Illustrator (File → Export As → SVG) and drop it in.

How do I make an animated logo?

Drop your SVG on the homepage. Animaitor parses the layers, runs them through a curated set of motion presets, and shows you a live gallery. Pick the animation you like and export it as GIF or WebM.

Can I use the animated logo commercially?

Yes. You own your logo and you own the animation. Use it in YouTube intros, websites, pitch decks, ads, email signatures, anywhere.

Does the GIF have a transparent background?

Yes. Exports preserve transparency where the source SVG is transparent — perfect for overlaying on websites, video, or email.

What's the difference between GIF and WebM?

GIF is universally supported (email, Slack, old browsers) but larger. WebM is smaller, sharper, and supports true alpha transparency — best for modern websites and video.

Will my logo stay sharp at any size?

Yes. Animaitor animates the underlying SVG vectors, so motion stays crisp at any resolution. Raster exports are rendered at the size you choose.

Can I fine-tune the animation?

Yes. Open any preset in the studio to adjust tempo, easing, layer order, and stagger before exporting.

Does it work for text-based or wordmark logos?

Yes. Layer-aware presets handle letter-by-letter reveals, kinetic typography, and stroke-draws on wordmarks, monograms, and combination marks.

SVG-native

Built for vector logos

Animaitor animates the underlying SVG paths and groups, not a rasterized image. That means motion stays razor-sharp at any size — from a 32px favicon to a 4K hero — and exports are dramatically smaller than video-based logo animators.

AI-curated

Motion that fits your mark

AI inspects your logo's structure — wordmark vs symbol, layer count, stroke vs fill — and weights presets that flatter it. No prompts, no guesswork. Just a gallery of animations that actually look right on your brand.
