Claude Motion alternative · for Claude Code, Codex & Cursor
Claude Motion, on any plan: turn a doc into motion.
Anthropic's Motion beta is limited to Team and Enterprise. MotionKit teaches the coding agent you already run to do the same job: write the animation as code, let you edit it, and render MP4 on your own computer.
Independent product. Not affiliated with Anthropic.
Real output. The showreel is cut from the eight example projects that ship in the pack; pick a style to watch its full 28-second example. Sample data.

Inside your agent
No new app. You just ask.
Install once, then hand your agent a file. It drafts a storyboard, picks a style and builds the video.
Turn docs/q3-review.md into a 30-second motion video. Keep every number exactly as written.
Here is the storyboard: 6 scenes, 28 seconds, Quiet Keynote style. Scene 2 uses the 31% growth figure from line 12. Build it?
Yes. Make the takeaway shorter.

How it works
Three steps. Your agent does the work.
Q3 reviewRevenue grew 31% quarter over quarter. Churn fell from 4.1% to 2.6%…
Drop in your content
A report, a script, lesson notes or a changelog. The agent reads all of it and keeps numbers exactly as written.
Approve the storyboard and style
You see every scene before anything is built, and pick one of eight looks or let the agent choose.
Edit, then render
Retime scenes on a timeline or ask for changes in plain words. Export MP4 when it looks right.
Motion styles
Eight looks, each a complete working video
Every style ships with its own fonts, layout rules, motion profile and a full example project your agent copies and rewrites. Hover a card to play it.
Compared
Anthropic's Motion vs MotionKit
Same idea: animation written as code, so you can change it. A different door in.
| Motion in Claude (Anthropic) | MotionKit (this site) | |
|---|---|---|
| Who can use it | Team and Enterprise workspaces, in beta | Anyone with Claude Code, Codex or Cursor, on any plan |
| Where it runs | Inside the Claude app | In your coding agent, rendered on your own computer |
| How it animates | Code-driven animation you can edit | Code-driven animation you can edit (HTML and GSAP on HyperFrames) |
| Output | MP4 export | MP4, plus the HTML source to keep and re-edit |
| Styles | Prompted per video | 8 ready-made motion styles, or your own brand style |
| Price | Included with Team or Enterprise seats | $19.9 or $49.9 a month, on top of the agent you already pay for |
Plan availability for Anthropic's feature is as reported at its beta launch on 8 October 2026 and can change. Check Anthropic's pricing page for the current state.
Why code, not generated video
Your numbers stay your numbers
Editable to the last frame
The video is an HTML file with a timeline. Change a word, a number or a duration and render again.
Nothing leaves your computer
The agent reads your file locally and the render runs locally. We only check your licence key.
Same input, same video
Rendered frame by frame with headless Chrome and FFmpeg, so a re-render matches the last one.
Charts from real values
The skill tells the agent to use the source's figures exactly and never fill a chart with invented data.
Fonts included
Seven open-licensed font files ship in the pack, so a style looks the same on every machine.
No credits, no queue
Render as many videos as your machine can handle. There is no watermark.

FAQ
Questions people ask first
Is this the official Claude Motion?
No. Motion is a beta feature Anthropic ships inside Claude for Team and Enterprise workspaces. MotionKit is a separate, independent skill pack that gives a coding agent the same kind of ability. We are not affiliated with or endorsed by Anthropic.
Can I use Claude Motion on a Pro, Max or Free plan?
Anthropic's built-in Motion was announced for Team and Enterprise only. If you are on Pro or Max you already have Claude Code, and MotionKit adds document-to-motion there. On the Free plan you can use the pack with Codex or Cursor instead.
What do I actually get when I pay?
A licence key by email and one install command. It adds a skill to your agent: a document-to-video workflow, 8 motion styles, a complete example project for each style (the clips on this page), 7 bundled open-licensed fonts, and the rules that keep renders correct. You keep every video and its source.
Does my document get uploaded anywhere?
No. Your agent reads the file locally and HyperFrames renders locally with headless Chrome and FFmpeg. Our server only checks your licence key and sends the skill files.
What do I need installed?
A coding agent (Claude Code, Codex or Cursor), Node.js 22 or newer, and FFmpeg for MP4 export. The first render downloads HyperFrames through npx.
Does it use my Claude usage?
Yes. The agent writes the animation code, so it uses your normal agent usage the same way any coding task does. We do not sell credits and there is no render quota.
Can I cancel?
Yes, any time from the link in your receipt. The pack keeps working until the end of the paid month; after that the installer stops delivering updates. Videos you already made are yours.
What is HyperFrames?
An open-source HTML-to-video framework by HeyGen (Apache-2.0). MotionKit builds on it and is not affiliated with HeyGen.
