Our verdict on Mocai
Mocai is an AI-powered, markerless motion-capture platform that converts ordinary single-camera video into 3D body motion. It reconstructs a performer’s mesh, skeleton, and finger articulation, with support for multi-person capture and performer selection on paid plans. The browser-based portal and public API make it suited to animation teams, technical artists, developers, and production workflows that need processed motion data rather than live capture.
The plan structure covers different processing needs. Free includes the full viewer, hand capture, downloads, and public API and webhooks. Basic costs $10 per month and adds priority processing, while Pro costs $39 per month and provides highest-priority processing; both retain hand capture, downloads, public API, and webhooks. Enterprise offers custom builds, custom integrations, and custom usage limits. Plans are metered by uploaded footage minutes, so the practical cost depends on how much video a workflow processes.
Mocai fits pipelines built around Blender, Maya, Unity, Unreal Engine, Mixamo, UE5 Manny, or MetaHuman, and exports FBX, USD, BVH, GLB, JSON, and CSV. Processing features include occlusion repair, ground stabilization, configurable smoothing, and raw keypoint preservation. The product is a good match for teams that want single-camera video converted into editable animation through web or API workflows. Teams requiring real-time camera capture should choose a tool designed for live capture instead.
