Short, plain answers to the questions people ask before they make their first video or deck.

Start here

• How to use Claude Motion: the built-in route and the coding-agent route, step by step.
• A Claude Motion alternative for Pro, Max and Free: what changes when you switch, and what you give up.
• Prompts: ten requests you can paste into your agent.
• Open-source motion skills: a checked list of free skills and engines, with licences.
• Docs, install guide and pricing.

Every guide

• Claude Motion not showing up? Here is why: Motion only appears in Claude Team and Enterprise workspaces. A quick checklist to confirm, and a way to make code-driven animation today on Free, Pro or Max.
• Claude Motion pricing, plan by plan: Motion has no separate price: it comes with Claude Team and Enterprise seats. What that means for Free, Pro and Max users, and what an alternative costs.
• Claude Motion-style examples, rendered for real: 141 complete code-driven animation examples: lessons, board updates, launches, pitches and changelogs across 37 styles, plus a live interactive deck. Every clip is actual output, not a mock-up.
• Claude Motion vs Runway, HeyGen and Canva: They solve different problems. Code-driven animation explains; Runway generates footage; HeyGen makes presenter videos; Canva assembles templates. How to pick.
• How to make animations with Claude: Three ways to get animation out of Claude: an artifact in chat, the Motion beta on Team and Enterprise, or Claude Code with a renderer for MP4 on any plan.
• Turn a Claude artifact into a video: Claude artifacts are interactive pages with no render-to-video step. How to get from an animated artifact to an MP4, and when to rebuild instead.
• A Remotion alternative for Claude Code: Remotion makes video with React components. HyperFrames makes it with plain HTML. What differs for an agent-driven workflow, including licence and setup.
• A Motion Canvas alternative, driven by an agent: Motion Canvas is a TypeScript library for programmatic animation. How an HTML-based, agent-driven workflow compares, and when Motion Canvas is still the better pick.
• An AI explainer video generator for people with something real to explain: Turn a report, lesson or script into an animated explainer with exact figures, charts, narration and 37 styles. Built by your own coding agent, rendered locally.
• An AI motion graphics generator you can actually edit: Kinetic type, animated charts and titled scenes in 37 styles, written as editable code by your coding agent and rendered to MP4 on your machine.
• Animated charts from your own data: Bar charts that grow, numbers that count up and filters your audience can click. Built from a spreadsheet or document by your agent, as MP4 or an interactive page.
• Turn a PDF or PowerPoint into an animated video: Give your coding agent a PDF, slide deck or script and get an animated explainer with charts and narration, or an interactive deck. Rendered on your computer.
• A narrated deck, without a microphone: Hand your coding agent a report or lesson. You get designed slides, a speaker script for every slide and a voice that reads them while the pages turn on their own.
• Make a PPT with Claude Code: How to get a designed slide deck out of Claude Code or Codex: a storyboard first, one point per slide, charts from your real numbers, and a .pptx or web deck at the end.
• Turn a document into slides: Word files, PowerPoint files, PDFs, Markdown and web pages go in. A deck with one point per slide, charts from the real tables and a script for each slide comes out.
• Claude Motion, and how to use it on any plan: Claude Motion is Anthropic’s feature that turns content into short code-driven animations, in beta for Team and Enterprise. What it does, and the route for Pro, Max and API users.
• Claude and video: what it can actually do: Claude does not cut footage. It can write video as code: titles, charts and explainers that render to MP4. An honest map of what works and when to use an editor instead.
• Remotion skill or HyperFrames skill?: Both let a coding agent write video as code. Remotion uses React components; HyperFrames uses plain HTML with a timeline. What that means for agents, licences and editing.
• Motion graphics software: a short, honest map: Timeline editors, template tools, video models and code-driven tools each suit a different job. A plain comparison, and where an agent-written video is the right choice.
