Kinetra2D
What it is
Kinetra2D is a browser-based workspace for rigging artwork, animating 2D scenes and exporting projects to PixiJS. Its rigging tools let users build bone hierarchies, pose characters, edit meshes and adjust attachment vertices. Animation features include keyframes, easing, playback, clips and a dedicated timeline. AI animation generation can provide motion starting points for further work with manual rigging and timeline tools.
PixiJS is the only currently supported export engine. A downloadable ZIP can include skeleton JSON, atlas PNG and JSON files, and sounds for a scene or a full project. Scenes can be saved and organized in a cloud workspace, with capacity based on the plan. The Free plan allows three projects per workspace and one scene per project, with community support. Pro costs $12 a month, billed monthly, and includes 50 projects per workspace, 10 scenes per project and up to 50 cloud projects. Paid tiers start with a 14-day trial without collecting a payment method. Locally saved Animator projects remain in the browser unless users choose an account feature that sends project data. The maker advises keeping exported files because preview functionality may change.

The verdict
Kinetra2D brings rigging, animation and PixiJS export into a browser workspace. Its export-engine restriction and changing preview functionality are worth considering before relying on it for a project.
Who it suits
Kinetra2D may suit artists or developers building 2D skeletal animations for PixiJS. Its Free plan offers a small workspace to start, while paid plans provide larger project capacities and additional workspace features.
