Animate a Toy From a Photo
Pikbo animates the toy in your photo. Pick a come-alive recipe — a dance, a wave, a little bit of life — and generate a short clip that gives your figure personality.

How it works
Photo in · clip out
Upload a toy photo you own, choose the recipe, and review whether Studio returned a live render or a labeled cached demo.
- 1
Upload one photo
A clear shot of a designer toy, figure, or blind-box pull you own. Plain background works best.

Use the tool on this page
With provider access configured, submit the toy clip for a live render. Otherwise you receive a clearly labeled cached demo.

Download & post
Review generated details before publishing. Free includes one Mini 5s 480p live trial with an on-player mark.
How this tool works
The state is always clear before you generate: a labeled cached demo, or a live run against your uploaded photo.
Come-alive motion is generated, so expect small variations in the figure between runs. Not happy? Regenerate — failed live jobs refund credits.
Lab proof
Example clips
Official cached references for motion and framing matched to this recipe. Cached playback never processes a visitor upload.

Questions
Cached demo or live?
The preflight shows whether the next result is a labeled cached demo or a live run that uses your uploaded photo.
What if the motion looks off?
AI motion varies run to run. Regenerate for a different take — failed live jobs refund the credits.
Is there a watermark?
With provider access configured, Free includes one Seedance Mini 5-second 480p live trial with an on-player Pikbo mark. Creator and Shop use the 720p path without that player mark; server-burned file watermarking is still a separate launch task.
How many live clips are included?
At the current flat 10-credit rate, Free is about 1 Mini trial, Creator about 5 live jobs, and Shop about 15. Live generation is finite; cached Lab references can be replayed without credits. Model, duration, and resolution weighting is a future server-enforced change, not a current promise.
Can I use the videos commercially — for my shop or ads?
Paid plans include commercial use, so you can run reviewed clips on your Etsy, TikTok Shop, Amazon, or paid ads. The single Free Mini live trial is for personal use and shows an on-player mark.
How many photos do I need?
Just one. A single clear photo of the toy you own is enough — no multi-angle shoot, no turntable, no rig.
How is this different from just filming with my phone?
Filming gives you direct control over the real object; Pikbo offers generated motion and scenes from one photo. Outputs can change small sculpt or color details, and configured live renders usually take 30–90 seconds.
