Local First

Draw, generate, animate all on your machine.

Run local models, keep your files close, and bring your own checkpoints, LoRAs, SoundFonts, and workflows. Cloud APIs stay optional.

Grimoire v2

Pixel art and AI workflows in one editor.

Grimoire is now a standalone pixel art editor. Draw, work with layers and palettes, build tilemaps, and animate on a frame timeline. Move between those tools and AI generation as your artwork develops.

Generate from a prompt, transform an image, or use AI Edit to make changes with natural language instructions. Animate Anything lets you explore movement from a still image and select frames to refine in the editor.
