Hi Product Hunt Fam 👋😻！ I’m Helen, Product Lead for Animate AI, and I’m beyond excited to share our launch with you today! 🎉 A huge thanks to @hamza_afzal_butt for hunting us, and to the PH community and team for making this platform so amazing! 🙌 🤔 What is Animate AI? Animate AI is the world’s first all-in-one AI video generator designed specifically for creating animated video series! 🎥 Whether you're crafting multi-episode stories, trailers, or kids' tales, Animate AI helps you create stunning videos 10x faster and at 30% lower costs—and no technical skills required! ✨ 💡 Why did we build Animate AI? Before Animate AI, generating multi-episode animated series was messy, expensive, and complex. I spent around $100/month bouncing between different tools—creating characters, storyboarding, generating voiceovers, music and hoping everything would line up just right. It was overwhelming and easy to get lost! 😩 Animate AI’s mission? We wanted to make the process seamless and affordable. Just describe your idea, and let AI assist you—everything from character design to storyboards, video generation, and even automated enhancements. It’s like having your own animation studio on a budget! 🤩 🌟 Why Animate AI? Storytelling should be about creativity, not technicalities. Animate AI simplifies every step: 👍 Generate consistent characters to keep continuity across episodes. 👍 Turn scripts into storyboards with visuals and voiceovers in minutes. 👍 Transform ideas into stunning videos with just a prompt or image. 👍 Seamlessly integrate cutting-edge AI models and tools in one place. 👍 Autopilot Mode even handles everything for you! 🤝 Who made this possible? This vision came to life thanks to the incredible support of the Head of Giant AI Lab @johnsonuk, and our fantastic team. A big shoutout to our Design Engineer Lead @maybemonad, and Creative Director @fangying430. Special thanks to our Project Manager, Xiaoqi Mo; AI Artists Mingjia Lei, Zhangyuan Zhou, and Jingxi Chen. We also want to acknowledge the valuable advice and support from our Algorithm Engineers Xinhan Di, Runhua Shi, Huan Yang, Kexin Luan, Zihao Chen, and Safety Engineer Xiaohao Zhang. Couldn’t have done it without all of you! 💪 🚀 Special Launch Offer To celebrate our launch, we’re offering a 75% discount on the first month of the Standard Plan (just $9.99!) exclusively for Product Hunt users until 12/31/2024. 🎁 👉 Explore Animate AI: https://animateai.pro 👉 Enjoy Video Shows : https://animateai.pro/showcases 👉 Start for Free: https://animateai.pro/launch 💬 We’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback! What excites you about Animate AI? What features would you like to see next? Drop your comments below—we’re here to chat. Let’s reimagine storytelling together! 🙌 Best, Siyu(Helen)Xiong

💡 Bright idea

Thank you showing me this a few days ago. Helen and I brainstormed some future ideas and marketing activities and we ended up with the fact there are many opportunities for kids to play with their AI movies further – beyond online world. Hope that many kids will appreciate this video generator as I do. GL, Helen and the team! :)

@busmark_w_nika Hey Nika! ❤️ Yeahhh we did it 🥳 Thank you so much for your incredible support! It means the world to me. Also, I'm thrilled to hear you're still brainstorming ideas! We’ve seen an unexpected bump in users since our first alpha launch on PH, and the data curve looks amazing! 💥 It’s such a big win for us, especially with all the feedback and ideas coming in from everyone. Seriously, this is just the start!👏 That said, we’ve noticed our task queue growing fast, and our team has been pushing hard to get more resources in the last 12 hours. Big news—we've got it! We're putting everything we have into delivering that "magic" result to everyone as quickly as possible!💪 I have also been thinking about launching a Discord platform to connect with the community, answer questions, and gather even more feedback! Sounds like a solid next step, right?🤔 I can’t wait to show you what’s coming next, and I’m always inspired by your brilliant ideas! You’ve got this amazing way of helping me unlock new possibilities. Can’t wait to stay in touch more often! Thanks again for being such an incredible support, Nika. Love you! 💖
