About
Dinoctor is a free desktop app for Mac and Windows that makes animated videos without needing to be an animator. You direct, Dinoctor animates.
A project is made of scenes, and each scene is made of shots. In every shot you pick a place, a cast of characters and objects, what they do, on-screen text, a camera move, lighting and a transition. Dinoctor turns it into a finished MP4.
Pick a look (Pixel, Toon, Voxel, Ember, Paper, Doll, Shadow, Chalk, Neon, Documentary, or Blank with your own pictures), start from ready-made samples, add a voiceover, music and sound effects, and export vertical videos for Reels, Shorts and TikTok or wide ones for YouTube.
It also has a built-in MCP server: connect it to Claude Desktop, Claude Code or Cursor in one click, then ask the AI to make or change a video while you watch it happen in the app.
