PetPal Studio: Turn your pet photo into a desktop companion

Give your pet a tiny spot on your desktop. PetPal Studio turns a clear pet photo into an animated companion for Mac or Windows, without asking you to draw the animation. Pay once to unlock the generated preview and private pet pack, then import it into PetPal Desktop.

Hi Product Hunt — I'm working on PetPal Studio, a way to make a desktop companion from a photo of your own pet. The part I want to make simpler is the work between having a pet photo and seeing an animated companion on your desktop. You don't need to draw animation frames: the service prepares an importable .petpet package, and PetPal Desktop plays it. Custom pet creation is a one-time paid service. Payment unlocks the generated preview; Mac and Windows app links and import instructions are provided with delivery. Check the website for current pricing and installer requirements. The desktop client is MIT-licensed and available at https://github.com/ethmoon/petpa.... The hosted generation service and private order backend are separate. I'd appreciate feedback on the photo instructions, the setup process, and how clearly we explain what you receive. The walkthrough is here: https://petpal.studio/blog/how-t...

Start with a clear photo of one pet. PetPal Studio uses AI to prepare an animated companion and packages the assets into a .petpet file for PetPal Desktop on Mac or Windows. You do not need to draw animation frames yourself.

Custom generation is a one-time paid service. Payment unlocks the generated preview; the private package becomes available when it is ready. The generated pet is an interpretation of the reference photo, so appearance and motion can differ from the original.
