Squish, sculpt & star in your own clay stories.

Claymates is a pocket stop-motion studio — mold wobbly characters, snap frames, and premiere tiny films. No kiln, no mess.

A whole clay box in your pocket

Everything you need to go from a plain lump to a lovable little film.

Squishy sculpting

Push, poke, and pinch digital plasticine. Every surface keeps its thumbprints, and every smudge fades with one tap of undo.

Stop-motion made simple

Nudge your pal a hair, snap a frame, repeat. Onion-skin ghosts keep each wiggle perfectly on beat.

A stage for your stars

Export loopable GIFs and tiny shorts, post them to the gallery, and watch the reshaping ripples spread.

From lump to legend in three steps

If you can squish playdough, you can make a Claymates short.

1

Shape a pal

Roll a ball, stretch some limbs, stick on googly eyes. Your first Claymate is ready in minutes.

2

Pose & snap

Move them a smidge, capture a frame, and repeat until the wobble feels alive.

3

Premiere it

Press play, sprinkle in wobbly sound effects, and share your tiny masterpiece with the world.

Words from the clay crew

Kids, teachers, and hobby animators on what Claymates feels like.

“My clay cat has forty thousand followers now. Animating in Claymates feels like recess, not homework.”
Maya, 12
Junior animator & cat director
“I storyboarded a whole short film on the school bus. The little squish sounds alone are worth it.”
Theo, 15
Aspiring stop-motion director

Squishy questions

The things folks always poke us about.

Do I need to know how to draw or animate?

Not at all. If you can squish playdough, you can make a Claymates short. Every tool is a big friendly button, and undo forgives everything.

Can I use Claymates offline?

Yes — the whole clay box lives on your device. Your films sync to the shelf whenever you wander back online.

Is it safe for kids and classrooms?

Built side-by-side with teachers and parents: no ads, no strangers' comments, and a locked-down gallery mode made for classrooms.
