About Rive

Use Rive's familiar design and animation tools with our ground-breaking State Machine to create interactive content for your products, apps, sites, and games. No code or full code, you choose. Easily embed interactive animations or manipulate everything with code — Rive empowers you to work the way you want. The Rive Renderer can draw an unprecedented amount of vectors on screen. Everything on the screen animates at 120 fps with perfect quality. Rive files are a fraction of the size of videos, GIFs, image sequences, or JSON-based formats. Whether you bundle your animations or deliver them remotely, our optimized format helps keep your app small. Our runtimes are transparent, giving you the ability to evaluate, contribute, or modify them. Our runtimes give you the power to easily control your Rive files on any platform. Simply play the file as designed in the editor or manipulate everything with code.
