Sandbox
Sandbox is a revolutionary extension for Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro that bridges the gap between generative AI and professional motion graphics. By integrating industry-standard animation engines (html5, Three.js, GSAP, Pixi.js, p5.js) directly into your Adobe workflow, Sandbox allows you to generate complex, code-based animations using simple natural language prompts. Whether you need 3D models, physics simulations, kinetic typography, or data visualizations, Sandbox turns text into editable, high-quality, render-ready assets instantly.
An AI-powered animation studio
that lives directly inside Adobe After Effects. It unifies the world's most powerful AI models (Gemini, OpenAI, Claude) with industry-standard control (GSAP, Three.js, p5.js) to generate, edit, and export complex animations in seconds.
All of these animations are created using AI inside After Effects & Premiere Pro
🖱️ Real-Time Interaction
Capture: Record your live movement and export it to After Effects as PNG sequence.
AE → Canvas: Select a layer in Ae, and Sandbox will use its position data to “simulate” the mouse movement.
Canvas → AE: Record your live mouse interactions from the canvas. Sandbox captures this path and exports it as a Null layer with keyframes.
🦴 SVG Rigging Mode
A professional rigging tool built-in.
- Smart Labeling: Click on SVG parts to assign semantic labels (HEAD, LEFT_ARM, BODY).
- AI Context: These labels are passed to the AI, ensuring it knows exactly which part is which for character animation (e.g., "Raise the left arm").
📊 Data Visualization
Upload JSON, CSV, or TXT files directly. The AI automatically parses your data, allowing you to create dynamic charts, graphs, and data-driven animations effortlessly.

2.0.0 -
Jun 12, 2026
- New SVG Smart Mode analyzes uploaded SVGs into a clean manifest instead of sending huge raw SVG code.
- Made SVG Smart Mode the default.
- Kept legacy raw SVG mode as optional.
- Improved SVG parsing: bounds, colors, IDs, labels, and spatial grouping.

1.6.0 -
Jun 11, 2026
New Features & Improvements:
New "Smart Mode" for SVGs: Re-architected how SVGs are handled with the new Smart Manifest mode. Instead of feeding raw path coordinate data to the AI (which wastes tokens and confuses generation), Sandbox now extracts a lightweight, intelligent structure map. This results in massive token savings (~95% cheaper per call), faster generations, and far more accurate animations.
Smart SVG Auto-Labeling: Sandbox now automatically detects and imports group and layer names directly from Illustrator/Inkscape (e.g., LEFT_HAND, HEAD). Prepare your groups in your vector editor, and they will map instantly into the Sandbox rigging modal!
Upgraded AI Models: Added full support for the latest Claude Fable and Claude Opus (v4.8) models.
Smarter Prompt Enhancer: Completely rewritten enhancer prompt system. It now intelligently analyzes your intent, animation duration, and mood before writing the prompt, resulting in vastly more creative and context-aware results.
Bug Fixes:
Fixed TTS (Text-to-Speech) payload format issues resulting in 400 errors.
Re-wired Gemini's Text-to-Speech API to seamlessly support both standard (2.5-flash) and premium (3.1-flash) models via a new UI selector.
Fixed an issue where Gemini 2.5's "thinking mode" was causing enhanced prompts to unexpectedly cut off mid-sentence.
Removed redundant 1.5.1 legacy version tags to ensure the licensing modal accurately reflects v1.6.0.

**? New: Real-Time Stream Capture**
- Added `captureStream()` + `MediaRecorder` pipeline animation clock no longer drifts during recording
- Fixes the root cause of recordings playing faster than the preview and choppy slow-motion in AE
- Available as **Stream Capture (Beta)** toggle in Settings, off by default, original behavior preserved
**? Full Coverage Across All Capture Methods**
- Stream path applied to all 3 engines: `Record`, `Live Record`, and `Fullscreen Live Record`
- Canvas engines (HTML5, Three.js, p5, Pixi, Matter, PlayCanvas) use the stream path
- GSAP and Free Web (iframe) automatically fall back to the legacy path — unchanged behavior
**?️ Mouse Capture & Tracking Points in Stream Mode**
- Mouse positions now sampled at frame-rate frequency during stream recording
- sandboxTracked elements also sampled correctly in stream mode
