About Viggle

Viggle is an AI character animation platform that turns a still image into a moving character. Users upload a character image and a reference motion video, or describe a motion in text, and Viggle generates a video in which the character performs that movement. The company describes the system as a physics-native world model built on its proprietary Joint Space-Time (JST) model, and says it has more than 50M users worldwide.

Best for

Meme and Social Content: Swap a character into a trending dance or meme clip for short-form posts.
Character Animation Prototypes: Bring an illustrated or generated character to life with a reference motion video.
Game Motion Capture: Use PINOC to turn a phone recording into motion for 3D characters in a game engine.
Live Character Swapping: Use Viggle Live to swap characters in real time during sessions.
App Integration: Build character swapping or motion features into an app through the API.
