Our Lab

The tools we build.
The franchises they make possible.

World-class tools for storytelling, production and franchise growth.

At Animaj Lab, creators, engineers and researchers work side by side to build the future of children's entertainment.

From Audience Intelligence™ to creator-directed AI, we develop proprietary technologies that help creators move faster, stories travel further and franchises grow stronger.

‍Technology does not replace creativity. It amplifies it.

Audience Intelligence™

Audience Intelligence™ transforms billions of signals from the global Made-for-Kids ecosystem into creative insight. By analyzing trends, white spaces and audience behaviors across platforms, we help creators understand what resonates — and discover what the market is still missing.

Creator-Directed AI

Our AI tools accelerate production while keeping creators in control. From Sketch-to-Motion™ to PoseBind™, we build technology that empowers artists, shortens production cycles and preserves creative ownership.

Distribution by Design

Great franchises are built to travel. From YouTube and streaming to apps, music and consumer products, distribution is designed into our franchises from the very beginning.

OUR TECHNOLOGiES

AUDIENCE INTELLIGENCE™

Turning ecosystem signals into creative decisions.

Audience Intelligence™ analyzes 1.5 million Made-for-Kids videos and continues to grow every week, mapping visuals, audio, characters, narrative structure, pacing, editing and music.

By analyzing trends, white spaces and creative patterns across platforms, it helps our teams understand where the market is saturated, where opportunities exist, and what creative choices make content resonate.

The tool informs creative decisions. It does not make them.

SKETCH-TO-MOTION™

From sketches to animation, without losing the artist's intent.

Sketch-to-Motion™ transforms artist sketches into 3D animation poses, helping animators move from animatics to production faster.

Trained on hundreds of thousands of Pocoyo sketch-and-pose pairs, the tool preserves each character's unique style while reducing repetitive manual work.

Animators remain in control. AI accelerates the workflow.
