Problem
Creating high-quality 3D animations traditionally requires expensive software, specialized skills in rigging and keyframing, and lengthy production cycles, which limits accessibility for creators, educators, and small businesses.
Solution
Krikey AI provides a browser‑based platform that lets anyone generate and edit talking 3D avatars in minutes using generative AI. Users can produce animations from simple text prompts, uploaded video footage, or pre‑built character templates, with automatic lip‑sync, voice synthesis, and motion capture. The integrated 3D editor supports real‑time collaboration, allowing teams to adjust facial expressions, hand gestures, camera angles, and backgrounds without any coding. Export options include MP4, GIF, PNG, and FBX for use in social media, presentations, games, or Unity/Unreal pipelines. Krikey’s ecosystem is embedded in popular design tools such as Canva and Adobe Express, extending its reach to creators wherever they work.
