Motion - A video agent for tasteful motion design
by•
Motion is a frontier video agent for tasteful motion design.
Give it a prompt with links, X threads, videos, assets, or references. Motion researches, storyboards, and creates explainers, launch videos, logo animations, or motion design for existing videos.
Then edit everything directly: resize, drag and drop, modify elements, or iterate with chat.

Looks super helpful! Love the builder and the ability to post on social in the same flow.

@olivier_roth Thanks Olivier! Give it a try at https://motion.so. Access code for our ProductHunt launch: `phmotion`.
The edit individual elements instead of regenerating the whole scene part is the unlock everyone's been waiting for.
Every other AI video tool turns into a slot machine...pull the lever, hope, repeat.
Curious about the taste claim though. That's the hardest thing to get right and the easiest to fake in a launch reel. Is there a style library it pulls from, or is it composing from scratch per prompt?
Grabbing an invite. If it can turn a product link plus a few bullets into a real explainer, it saves me a week.

@midori_verity agreed — the editability post-generation is a fundamental difference between AI video generation and our internal and modifiable representation of video.
With something as visual as video, "almost" good enough is not good enough and the painful process of re-generating videos again and again just to run into more AI hallucinations burns a lot of time and credits. Motion solves that by giving you full editability at the element-level for every frame of your generated video!
Styling can be included directly in the prompt through specific instructions around brand guidelines or simply by dropping in your own website link and having it pull the design system from there. We also allow you to upload your own Design MD or provide other videos as style references.
Try it out at https://motion.so. Let me know how it goes for you!

Motion is here for anyone who wants their videos to actually look good, not just “done.”
I’m part of the team behind Motion. We built it around the real taste and workflow of motion designers and video editors, instead of just making another generic AI agent that edits videos.
Our goal is to capture that crafted, human motion-design feel in an AI-powered tool, so the results look like something a professional would actually be proud to publish.
We’re also very excited about what’s coming next. Soon, you’ll be able to choose exactly how much control you want: dial in every detail like a motion designer, or hand more over to Motion so you can ship high‑quality videos in bulk with minimal effort.

Thrilled that Motion is finally out! We've seen some stunning videos being created from our beta testers, such as launch videos, product demos, and more. Join our Discord community for the latest updates.
Amazing as a content creator lacking the creative bone if you will this is perfect for me. I can create the artistic high quality motion graphics that other tools lack and I don't have to pay $1000's to have a graphic designer make them.

@jered_king Everyone can make content now, all you need is good ideas and taste :)
Why redirection from product hunt invalid access. Invite code failing

@codec_headec Can you please let me know what you're seeing? Please head to https://motion.so. Access code is phmotion.
Motion.so is a great product. I have been leveraging it for all my product demo videos. The minimalist version of it is something i really like about it.

@jasmeet_singh34 Thanks Jasmeet for being an early adopter!
Fascinating to see multi-step agentic workflows applied to motion design. I love that it parses external links and storyboards first, but I'm curious about how it maintains state during element-level editing. When iterating via chat, how does the agent isolate and update a single asset without hallucinating changes across the rest of the rendered scene? I was also curious whether there a system of "Version control" exist, allowing users to go to previous versions.

@rugved_chavan thanks for the comment!
We have an internal representation of the video that allows individual element-level decisions to be made without affecting the rest of the state.
And yep, we have version control built in so you can undo any manual changes or go back to any checkpoint in the chat just like with Cursor.
@adishj Ohh cool then, All the best
The element-level editing is the right place to be opinionated. For product/launch videos, “tasteful” usually depends on constraints that are easy to lose: brand pacing, how much product proof appears before flourish, which animations feel off-brand, and which references are actually approved.
One thing I’d love to see is a small style-memory / “why this direction” panel: pulled from website, these references, these uploaded brand notes, then user corrections like “too kinetic” or “not enough product detail.” That would make the agent feel more like a reusable creative director than a one-off generator.

@jim_jeffers taste is a hard thing to imbue into an agent but we've done our best and are improving everyday!
Style references are useful context for an agent to know what to do but also just super detailed prompting with breakdowns by timestamp of desired voiceover / music / sfx / visual components is all helpful context for the agent.
Really like the idea of a "why this direction" panel that elaborates on the agent's thought process and creative decision making + memory that evolves over time to understand your brand and identity.
