Description
Raylight provides a comprehensive 3D motion design canvas designed for both human creativity and AI collaboration, making it easy to produce high-quality product videos and demos. The platform aims to simplify complex motion design processes, allowing users to create launch-ready content in minutes rather than days, even without prior motion design skills.

The core functionality includes a precise design canvas where users can lay out shots, drop in product screens, text, and shapes, with snapping, aligning, and grouping capabilities similar to traditional design tools. Animation is streamlined by using animation blocks on a timeline, eliminating the need for complex keyframe graphs. Users can drag block edges to set timing and see live updates to camera moves, focus, and bloom effects.
Raylight integrates AI capabilities through its MCP server, allowing users to instruct AI models like Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and Antigravity to make changes directly on the canvas. These AI-generated edits remain fully editable by the user. The platform also offers a Raylight API, enabling developers to send briefs from code, GitHub workflows, or chat interfaces, with Raylight pitching video concepts for free and then generating the video once approved.
Additional features include 3D mockups for displaying screens on virtual devices like iPhones or MacBooks, with adjustable tilt and lighting. Sound design is robust, offering AI-generated sound effects from prompts, custom music, and voiceover capabilities, all mixable on a multitrack timeline. Collaboration is facilitated through Live Share, where reviewers can scrub animations and see live cursor movements on the canvas.
Raylight offers a freemium pricing model, with a free tier providing the full editor, unlimited projects, and 1080p 60fps exports with a badge. Paid plans like Hobby, Pro, Max, Team, Business, and Enterprise remove the badge, unlock 4K exports, provide monthly credits for AI agent edits and sound generation, and add features like video embeds, increased MCP calls, and team collaboration tools. Credits are used for AI-driven tasks such as sound effects, music tracks, voiceovers, and Raylight API videos, with pitches being free.
