Animaker

Animaker is an online DIY video creation platform for animated and live-action videos, with AI script, voice and character tools for non-designers.

Overview

Animaker lets teams produce animated explainers, marketing videos and presentations without animation skills. Its drag-and-drop studio includes thousands of templates, characters, props and scenes, while AI features accelerate production: an AI script generator, AI voiceovers in multiple languages, auto-subtitling, AI character lip-sync and one-click resize for social formats. A large asset library and brand-kit features keep outputs consistent, and built-in collaboration supports review and comments. It is one of the most established players in the browser-based animation maker market.

Training teams script a module, let the AI draft the storyboard and voiceover, then adjust character actions and scene timing in the drag-and-drop studio. Auto-subtitling and translation produce localized versions for regional teams, and brand kits keep every video visually consistent. For marketing, smart resize generates platform-specific cuts from one master video, while collaboration features let reviewers comment without touching the timeline.

Pricing

Animaker is freemium: a free plan covers basic creation with watermarked exports; paid plans remove watermarks, unlock premium assets and longer videos, and add team features. Enterprise plans include dedicated support.

Who Is It For

It serves L&D teams, marketers, educators and startups that need explainer and training videos on a budget, with no animation or editing background required.

An L&D team drafts an onboarding script, lets AI propose the storyboard and voiceover, and refines character actions in the visual editor. Auto-subtitles and translation create regional versions, brand kits enforce style, and smart resize produces social cuts from the master video. Reviewers comment on drafts without touching timelines, keeping feedback loops short across departments.
