Maxon Autograph

Maxon Autograph is a digital compositing and motion graphics software used in the post-production industry of movie-making or motion-graphics design video making. It covers a wide range of functionnalities such as 2D animation, Keying, Tracking, 2D and 3D compositing, Audio mixing. Autograph uses a traditional timeline/layer approach to compositing which makes it suited for animation projects. The timeline offers basic editing functionnalities of a non-linear video editor. Moreover, it offers an whole new concept of Generators and Modifiers which allows to link and re-use anything that was created in the project, making it as capable as a node-based compositor such as Fusion. These concepts can also completely replace what traditionnally animators do by programming "Expressions" in other softwares, such as Adobe After Effects, making it suitable for users without programming knowledge. Autograph is entirely programmed to use the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) of the computer and is known to offer faster processing capabitilies than its alternatives.

Autograph used to be developed by Left Angle as a paid product before the Left Angle team joined Maxon in 2025. In April 2026 Autograph was re-released by Maxon as a Freemium product.
