Problem
App developers and marketers often lack quick, affordable ways to create custom animated mascot characters that match their brand identity, leading to reliance on generic assets or costly design services. This hampers brand differentiation and increases time-to-market for interactive UI elements.
Solution
Masko offers an AI‑driven platform that generates unique mascot characters from a brand URL or textual description and automatically produces a library of consistent animations such as waving, celebrating, and dancing. Users can select from multiple visual styles—including cartoon, flat, pixel, 3D, and kawaii—or upload reference images for fully custom looks. The generated assets include transparent‑background exports and are hosted on a global CDN, providing instant URLs that can be embedded in any app or website without additional setup. A REST API and developer‑ready SDK enable programmatic generation and integration into existing pipelines, while a branding toolkit adds logo and marketing animation creation to maintain a cohesive visual identity. The service operates on a credit‑based pay‑as‑you‑go model, allowing teams to scale usage without subscription commitments.

Primary customers are mobile and web app developers, product teams, and marketing professionals who need on‑brand animated characters for UI, onboarding, and promotional content.
