About

Kinetix is a Paris-based AI animation platform that converts ordinary video into 3D character motion via markerless motion capture, generates animations from text prompts, and auto-rigs and retargets the results onto any humanoid avatar. Its embeddable Emote SDK lets players create custom emotes inside Unity and Unreal games from their phone camera, with built-in content moderation and a streaming format for sharing animations.

Founded in 2020 by Yassine Tahi and Henri Mirande, the company raised $12.5M in seed funding and partnered with platforms like Roblox, The Sandbox, and ZEPETO. Pricing is usage-based and developer-friendly: integration is free, with 10,000 free emote generations on the self-service Basic tier and 50,000 on Enterprise, then 0.15 euros per emote.
