Move AI vs Storybook Adventures

Move AI describes its products as markerless motion-capture systems that use AI to create motion data. Move One is an iPhone app that turns single-camera video into 3D animation. Its free plan provides 30 credits once, which do not expire, for videos up to 30 seconds. Starter costs $18 a month, billed at $18/month plus VAT, and includes 60 credits per month for videos up to 60 seconds. Other listed tiers are Standard at $48 a month, Plus at $225 a month, and Advanced at $490 a month. Genesis processes motion data on premises through a desktop application using Nvidia GPUs. It requires one Nvidia GPU and 6–12 Z CAM cameras and lenses; listed capture capacity is 1–8 people in volumes of 4 × 4 meters or 20 × 20 meters. Genesis can process RGB or grayscale feeds from many existing Vicon or OptiTrack systems and integrates with Peel Capture for camera control, start and stop commands, file naming, and project management. Output formats include FBX, BVH, GLB, USDZ, Blender, C3D, JSON, and MP4 previews. Move AI says it does not actively try to identify people in video, motion data, or output files.

Storybook Adventures turns photographs of children’s paper drawings into animated short films with sound. A child chooses a story world, draws on paper, photographs the picture in the app and watches it animate. Each film has three scenes, and the app offers 24 adventures, including Pirate Treasure, Space Journey and Fairy Forest. The App Store listing describes it as designed for ages 6–12; it is available on iOS and macOS. The download is free, and each animation uses one token. Token packs are bought through Apple In-App Purchase: Starter Pack costs 4.99 USD once, Explorer Pack 9.99 USD once, Creator Pack 19.99 USD once and Family Pack 29.99 USD once. The maker says an AI safety review checks each photo before animation and rejects inappropriate submissions. It also says the app has no account, email, name, location, ads, trackers, social features or chat, and complies with GDPR and COPPA by design. Animation is processed on the maker’s servers, so creating a film requires internet; finished animations can be watched offline. Purchases require a parental gate and Apple authentication, and parents can lock the shop. Delivered animations use non-returnable tokens, while moderation rejections and technical failures refund the token.
