What is Moho?
Moho, formerly Anime Studio, is everything you need to expand your animation toolkit with more efficient animation tools that improve projects and workflows over traditional, time-consuming, and often tedious software.
The most powerful 2D rigging system
Moho’s rigging system is intuitive and fast. You can rig your own characters in minutes! Easily create skeletons for humans, animals or any creature or object you want to animate. Work with Forward and Inverse kinematics. Set target bones, add Pin bones for special control, animate the hierarchy, add Constraints, add automatic squash and stretch to any bone, Copy and Relatively Paste animation between different characters with similar skeletons and much more! Discover why Moho’s rigging system is the ‘secret weapon’ of many artists!
Drawing tools optimized for animation
The unique vector system in Moho is optimized for animation and rigging, keeping the shapes always consistent while they move. Moho vector tools allow you to draw directly inside the software. You can also add brushes and effects to easily obtain natural results. Everything can be animated: curvature, linewidth, exposure, curve profiles, paths, masks, gradients, opacity, point colors… Moho’s flexible tools will empower you to animate any style!
Smart Bones
Smart bones are a revolutionary way to make your characters behave exactly in the way you want. Your characters’ joints will bend with no distorsions. You can also use Smart Bones as control levers to animate facial expressions, face rotations or even entire body turns! The best part is they are extremely easy to set up. Simply select the bone you want to transform into a Smart Bone, create an action for it and animate the elements in the way you want. Now every time you animate that bone, everything else will move exactly as you planned!
And much more…

Said about Moho as an alternative
Unbeatable for the price. No subscription. Very professional toolset and features. Performance on the Mac since version 13 is abysmal, stick with version 12 until they properly implement GPU acceleration and support for eGPUs on the Mac (which is on the roadmap). The IK is way better than Harmony.

Anime Studio uses a unique smart bone rigging system to create a character skeleton and then effortlessly move the character over the timeline. This is a phenomenal advantage and really helps to accelerate my workflow. With Anime Studio, a process that might have taken weeks, takes just hours - or sometimes even minutes!
I've owned and used Moho since version 2.0. This software is very powerful and offers a lot of professional features and functionality for a very decent price. Also no subscription! The latest version (13) has severe performance issues on the Mac (12 is much smoother), but the developers told me they are working on better GPU acceleration and hopefully proper eGPU support. In the past they have always delivered, let's hope they're on the right track to keep on doing that.
