claude / codex × after effects
Recreate this storyboard frame as a comp, then animate the title in with an overshoot.
Created "Scene_01" (1920×1080 · 30fps). Imported the reference, matched the layout signature, and applied an anticipation-overshoot rig to the title. Visual QC passed at 94% match.
Make the background gradient warmer and add film grain.
Shifted the gradient toward amber, added a subtle noise texture layer at 12% opacity. Snapshot attached — want me to render a preview?

A real motion designer's toolset, wired to AI

Not a gimmick layer over scripting — a deep bridge into After Effects that Claude, Codex and other MCP-capable agents can actually see through and correct themselves with.

120+ purpose-built tools

Compositions, shape layers, text, keyframes, expressions, effects, masks, track mattes, time remapping, 3D scenes, cameras — every core AE workflow has a dedicated tool Claude or Codex can use.

Image-to-comp matching

Drop in a storyboard frame or design reference. Your agent rebuilds it as a native, editable composition and runs pixel-level QC against the original until the layout matches.

Visual feedback loop

Your AI agent captures snapshots of the comp as it works, sees what it actually made, and fixes overflows, misalignments and color drift on its own — before you ever hit preview.

Checkpoints & rollback

Every generation step is wrapped in manifest snapshots. One command rolls the project back — and your own hand-made layers are never touched.

29 motion-design skills

Built-in quality skills encode real motion design craft: easing curves, kinetic typography, color grading, layout patterns, anticipation and overshoot — applied automatically.

Native, editable output

No baked renders, no black boxes. Everything lands as ordinary AE layers, keyframes and expressions you can grab and tweak like you made them yourself.

Up and running in minutes

01

Install the panel

Run one installer. IPEKLI Bridge adds a lightweight CEP panel to After Effects and registers itself as an MCP server for Claude, Codex and other compatible clients.

02

Connect your AI client

Open Claude Code, the Claude desktop app or Codex — the bridge appears as a set of After Effects tools, ready to use.

03

Direct, don't operate

Describe scenes, paste references, ask for revisions. Your agent builds comps, animates, checks its own work visually and iterates until it looks right.

One price. Yours forever.

No subscription, no upsells. Try it first, then pay once for lifetime access.

Frequently asked questions

What exactly do I get?+

A download of the IPEKLI Bridge installer (CEP panel + MCP server for After Effects) and a lifetime license key. The key activates on 1 machine and unlocks all current and future versions.

Do I need Claude or Codex?+

IPEKLI Bridge is the connection between After Effects and your AI client. You can use Claude Code, the Claude desktop app, Codex or another MCP-capable client — just bring an account/plan that supports tool use.

Which After Effects versions are supported?+

After Effects 2024 and newer on macOS and Windows. The panel uses Adobe's standard CEP extension system — no beta builds or plugins from unknown sources.

Is there a trial?+

Yes — the panel runs as a fully functional 7-day trial before you buy. If you purchase, your license key replaces the trial and unlocks lifetime access on 1 active machine.

What does "lifetime" mean?+

One payment, permanent license, all future updates of IPEKLI Bridge included. If we ever release a fundamentally different product, that would be separate — but the Bridge itself never asks you to pay again.

Will it touch or break my existing projects?+

Generated work is tracked in manifests with checkpoint and rollback support, and the bridge never modifies layers it didn't create. Your hand-made work stays yours.

What's your refund policy?+

All purchases are final and non-refundable. The trial exists so you can install the panel, connect your AI client and test it on real After Effects projects before deciding to buy.
