Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Animaker is an online animation and video creation platform for marketers, trainers, HR teams, educators, sales professionals, and individual creators. It supports template-based explainer, training, promotional, onboarding, presentation, cartoon, whiteboard, infographic, and social media videos. Users can work in a browser or through iOS and Android apps, with tools for custom characters, 2D animation, editing, AI-generated assets, text-to-speech, automatic lip-sync, subtitles, translation, and project sharing.
The pricing structure starts with a Free plan that includes basic animation tools, limited premium assets, watermarked exports, and three video downloads per month. Basic costs $15 per month when billed annually and adds HD-quality videos, no watermark, whiteboard animations, and AI text-to-speech. Starter costs $25 per month annually and adds FHD-quality videos, a premium music library, AI tools, and AI subtitles. Pro costs $43 per month annually and adds 2K-quality videos, commercial rights, version history, and multiple download formats. Enterprise uses custom pricing and includes 4K-quality videos, unlimited downloads, and a brand kit. A 7-day free trial is also available.
Its broad feature set makes Animaker suitable for teams that need repeatable animated content rather than a dedicated production environment. Text-to-animation generation, templates, stock assets, transitions, effects, collaboration, and project sharing support a faster content workflow. Exports are available in MP4, GIF, and WebM, with quality reaching 4K on Enterprise. The platform focuses on 2D and 3D-style video creation, but does not provide built-in 3D modeling or skeletal rigging tools. Choose Animaker for accessible, collaborative animated videos across business, education, and social use cases; choose another tool if full production animation controls are central to the workflow.
