Description
Cartwheel is a generative motion platform built for production teams working on games, film and TV, advertising, and robotics. It helps animators create, capture, and reshape character motion faster and with more precision using AI models, either directly in its web-based app, Cartwheel Canvas, or through an API for scalable, automated pipelines.

The platform's production-ready models power a full range of capabilities to generate, reshape, and reuse motion, and it is designed to slot into existing pipelines so teams can deliver production-ready work in minutes rather than months. Beyond animation, Cartwheel treats movement as a data structure, letting teams build large motion datasets, targeted LoRAs, and style libraries to train embodied applications across industries.
Cartwheel offers subscription plans for individual creators and teams, with Individual Basic and Individual Pro tiers, plus API access for automation. Each plan includes a monthly credit allotment used to capture and generate motion, and a 7-day free trial is available.
