Welcome to the new Animoto! After 18 incredible years of helping creators bring their stories to life, we decided it was time for a makeover. Think of it as hitting “refresh” on a tool you already know and love—now more polished and powerful than ever.
So let’s take a trip down memory lane!
Why the rebrand?
Here’s the TDLR of it all: While our tools have evolved to give you even more creative freedom, our brand needed to catch up. We’re proud to say: it’s the same Animoto you know and love—just with a fresh coat of paint and even more inspiration to share.
In the last year alone, we’ve added over fifteen new features and improvements, 91 templates, 10 themes, and 5 text styles. That’s a long way from where we started in 2007! All we needed was a brand to match.
This rebrand isn’t just about updating our appearance—it’s about embracing the exciting new features and possibilities we’ve developed along the way. We’re more polished, more powerful, and ready for the next chapter of inspiring video creation.
