Use case

Turn yourself into a cartoon — then watch it move

Upload a selfie or a couple photo, pick a cartoon style, and AI turns you into an adorably exaggerated caricature — giant head, tiny body — then brings it to life with a bouncy come-alive gag. Your real photo cuts straight to cartoon-you springing off the screen.

Free to try No watermarks Own what you make

Cartoon-avatar filters are everywhere, and almost all of them do the same thing: flatten your face into a generic sticker that barely looks like you and never moves. This runs a slower, more deliberate process — restyle you into a proper caricature with your features exaggerated but still recognisable, then animate a short come-alive gag so the cartoon actually springs, waves, or dances. Your real photo cuts to the cartoon version leaping to life, scored with a playful track. It reads like a tiny animated short of you, not a frozen filter.

What you can pick

Hand-tuned variants. Pick the one that fits the moment — the AI handles the rest.

1 3D Toon

The big-head, family-film look — smooth 3D shading, oversized head, tiny body. The most universally flattering pick.

2 Rubber Hose

1930s pie-eyed cartoon — bouncy black-and-white rubber-limb style, all vintage charm.

3 Claymation

Stop-motion clay — hand-moulded texture, thumbprints and all. Reads warm and tactile.

4 Chibi

Cute big-eyed mini — tiny body, huge eyes, maximum sweetness. Strong for couples and kids.

Perfect for

Some moments this fits — there are more.

Profile picture

Use a frame from the cartoon as a new avatar across social, Discord, or a work chat.

Birthday post

A cartoon of the birthday person springing to life makes a better post than another flat photo.

Make a kid laugh

Cartoon a child — or the whole family — and watch them replay the come-alive gag on a loop.

Couple caricature

Upload a photo of the two of you and get a cartoon pair — a fun anniversary or just-because send.

Social reveal

Post the real-photo-to-cartoon cut as a "new look" reveal on TikTok or Reels.

Group-chat gag

Cartoon a mate mid-gesture and drop it in the chat — the come-alive bounce does the comedy.

Tips for the best result

A few small things make a noticeable difference.

  • 1

    Front-facing reads strongest

    Caricature works best when both eyes and the mouth are clearly visible. A straight-on selfie gives the cleanest, most recognisable exaggeration.

  • 2

    Check the cartoon still first

    The effect pauses on the cartoon image before it animates. Look at it — if the likeness isn't there, re-run with a clearer photo before spending on the video.

  • 3

    Expressive photos make funnier cartoons

    A big smile or a raised eyebrow in the source exaggerates into a stronger caricature than a flat, neutral face.

  • 4

    Two faces work, but crop tight

    Couples cartoon nicely; just make sure both faces are close together and clearly visible. A distant background face gets less detail.

How it works

  1. 1

    Upload a selfie or couple photo

    A front-facing photo where faces are clearly visible works best — one person or two. Indoor, outdoor, casual, all fine.

  2. 2

    Pick a cartoon style

    Choose 3D toon, rubber-hose, claymation, or chibi. You see the cartoon still before committing to the animation, so you only pay for the moving version once you like the look.

  3. 3

    Watch it come alive

    Pick a come-alive gag — a boing, a wave, a happy dance, a blown kiss, or type your own — and the cartoon springs to life over a playful track. A few minutes end to end.
