Kinetix

Kinetix is an AI research company focused on generating and understanding 3D human motion, built around converting ordinary video into 3D character animation. Instead of manually rigging and keyframing a character, a studio or creator can feed in video and get back animation data mapped onto a 3D model, which is aimed at game developers, character animators, and other creators who need character motion without a full animation pipeline. Its mesh-aware retargeting technology adapts a single generated animation to different avatar rigs, which matters for studios juggling many character models, and its Kamo-1 model extends this to 3D-conditioned video generation, coordinating both camera and character motion from a mix of video, image, and text inputs. Kinetix's technology is built into Unity Muse for native use inside Unity projects and has been licensed for use inside Adobe Mixamo and KRAFTON's OVERDARE emote creator. Kinetix positions itself mainly as a technology and licensing partner for studios and platforms rather than a stand-alone consumer app, so individual creators typically encounter it through a partner product instead of a direct Kinetix account.
