Hello Hunters! 👋
We're @etienn & @robi, and we're making Jitter. We are both passionate about motion graphics, and we basically want to make animation simple, fast, and more accessible.
We previously launched a simple text animator and the feedback has been amazing! 🙏 We learned that people want more customization, but in a simple and lightweight package (After Effects is still too cumbersome for many designers).
So here is our first take on a more advanced animation tool, with a couple of radical choices (no keyframes, built-in text animation support…). Please bear in mind this is a beta version, so everything might not work as expected yet, but we're really excited to see what you can create with Jitter already! :)
Looking forward to discussing in the comments: we'd love to hear your feedback and your thoughts on our tool!
@etienn@daryllman Thanks Daryll! It's still in early stage, and there are many things we need to improve, but we think it provides a lot of value already (especially in terms of speed and simplicity). Would love to hear your feedback!
@etienn@robi Is this like a web version of Principle? How is this unique from something like SVGator? And lastly, are you exporting objects as SVG from Figma (or other design tools) to bring into Jitter, or are you making them in Jitter first?
Thanks!
Jitter is the next go-to tool for visual creation.
As a priviledged early beta user I made an animation logo for my last product hunt launch, this would have never been possible without Jitter in such a short period of time.
@sleegal Awesome Gloria! Would love to know the specific needs of your team – for now we're at level 1 of collaboration (you can share files with the URL), but we want to make it great for working together too
@sleegal Sounds great, well please reach out to us after you play a bit more with the product: we'd love to understand how we can improve it for you :)
Wow - just tried the tool and it makes motion design so simple. Seems like a very obvious idea (« why don’t we have this already? » ) so it will boil down to execution which seems flawless so far. What’s next on the roadmap?
@robin_choy Thanks Robin! Here are a couple of exciting things right ahead:
- Animated components that you can use in 1 click and customize (like a company logo, a “get it on the App Store” button or more advanced titles / subtitles effects)
- Cascading animations
- Simple 3D models (phones, computers…) so you can make a demo of your app / website in situ
- Real-time collaboration
- and much more…
But most importantly: how could we improve Jitter for you / your team, so that we can prioritize the right things? Thanks!
@benjaminnetter@samandarco Interesting point you have here Samandar! We realize there is still a huge need to create animations for media content (it's even increasing). Curious to see how this evolves for the interface design part
@benjaminnetter@samandarco Good call, indeed we're planning to start helping individual designers, and then gradually become more and more important in a team workflow. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

Nice product, very easy to use. I'm looking forward to see how this talented team will make it evolve, I'm sure it will be the figma for motion design :)
@deltaevo Thanks David! Yes, the ambition is no lower than this :)
