Upload Your Drawing

Start by uploading any drawing, sketch, or character illustration. Our AI automatically removes the background to isolate your character.

Supported Formats
  • PNG, JPG, GIF, WebP
  • Up to 10MB file size
  • Transparent backgrounds work best
Tips for Best Results
  • Use high contrast between character and background
  • Draw characters with clear, visible limbs
  • Front-facing or T-pose works best for detection

AI Pose Detection

Our AI analyzes your drawing and automatically detects body landmarks to create a skeleton rig. This rig is what enables smooth animations.

What Gets Detected
  • Head, neck, and torso positions
  • Shoulder, elbow, and wrist joints
  • Hip, knee, and ankle positions
  • Optional: finger and face landmarks

Manual Adjustments: If detection isn't perfect, you can manually adjust joint positions using our visual editor.
