Roadmap
What works today. What's coming next.
No hype. Here's what works today, what's coming next, and the big plan after that.
Now
Version 1: stick figures
In the app today:
- AI Animator — type your idea and it plans the key poses and animates it, with real animation principles built in (wind-ups, ease in and out, follow-through, weight, impacts, planted feet).
- Moves and effects — walks, runs, jumps, punches, kicks, sword fights, plus effects like fire, water, lightning, ice, smoke, explosions and text.
- Drawing tools — draw by hand, pose stick figures and work frame by frame on a timeline.
- Export — save your animation as an MP4 video to share anywhere.
- Help Assistant — ask how to do something while you work.
Next — coming soon
Before the beta opens
Not built yet. This is what Arthur is building right now:
- Edit by chatting — tell the AI Animator “make it slower” right inside the editor, and it changes your animation.
- Beta opens October 20, 2026 — the first 50 on the early-access list get 25% off their first year.
Coming — no date yet
Vote on what Version 2 should be
Early users will get to vote on what Version 2 should be — and we'll thank voters. How the vote works isn't decided yet, and there's no date.
Later — no dates yet
Versions 2, 3 and 4
The big plan. No dates — Arthur only promises what's built — but this is where it's going:
- More complicated scenes — more going on at once.
- Better scenes — more detail and polish.
- More than stick figures.
This is just the beginning.
Watch every step get built on Arthur's YouTube channel, Animator Builder.
Don't wait for Version 2. Get in at the start.
The 14-day free trial opens October 20, 2026 — 150 AI credits, no card needed. Get early access and we'll email you the day it opens.
