Tack Studio: Time-saving After Effects tools for creators on the clock.

The mission is simple: to rid the world of busywork, the slow, repetitive tasks that eat into your day, and put that time back where it belongs. On the most important stuff. Like being creative. We’re launching with 4 tools. 3 extensions and 1 plugin. They mark the start of our product catalogue—and honestly, we have so much more to come. Plus, we’ve developed our own licensing system and built a cross-platform app that makes managing those licenses and installations a breeze.

What started as a tiny motion studio back in 2022 has grown into a software studio building time-saving tools dedicated to helping creators work smarter and faster. Both the business and the tools we create have always stood for doing things properly. Nothing but well-made, thoughtful solutions that do what they’re supposed to. Tack Studio’s Pro range reimagines many of the After Effects built-in tools we all know and love. Whether we’ve added missing features, fixed long-standing bugs or simply made something easier to use, each one is intentionally designed to be a complete replacement for their namesake, and to look and feel as native as possible. These tools are not over-engineered gimmicks with ‘pro’ in the name for little or no reason. Our tools are considered. Crafted. And above all else, inherently useful.

Finally something that actually cuts down the small annoyances I deal with daily instead of adding more. The cross-platform license manager is a surprisingly nice touch, especially when juggling installs across machines.

Love that you built your own licensing system from scratch instead of bolting on something clunky. Managing installs across platforms with that level of polish sounds like the kind of detail that actually saves people real time.
