PINOC vs Rokoko Create

PINOC turns ordinary video into 3D skeletal animation, using footage from a phone, webcam, or screen recording. A webcam or smartphone can capture one person’s full body without a suit or sensors. The maker says a capture takes about a minute and returns motion on a 65-bone Mixamo-named skeleton, with FBX and GLB export for 3D pipelines. It lists Blender, Unreal Engine, Maya, Unity, Cinema 4D, and Houdini as compatible tools. PINOC also provides image-to-3D characters, text-to-3D motion, and automatic rigging for uploaded models. Its page describes video-to-mocap and text-to-motion APIs, plus an MCP server for Claude, Cursor, and other compatible agents. The maker recommends an unobstructed person, full-body framing, and adequate lighting. Viggle says extracted features are discarded after generation and face data is neither stored nor shared. It may use submitted images and generated content to improve services, but excludes API and paid-user content from model training without prior written consent. PINOC has a free plan; paid plans are listed from $12.99/mo.

Rokoko Create generates 3D motion from video clips or text prompts, which users can edit in Rokoko Studio and export as FBX, BVH, or CSV. Video-to-motion uses Vision AI, with monthly processing allowances that vary by plan. Starter and paid plans include unlimited text-to-motion clips, but Studio imports are capped by plan except on Pro. Rokoko says generated video-to-motion and text-to-motion data can be used commercially. Exported FBX or BVH files are described as compatible with skeletons including UE5 Manny, HIK, and Mixamo, and with software such as Blender, Unreal Engine, Unity, Cinema 4D, Maya, Houdini, MotionBuilder, and iClone. Rokoko Studio also supports real-time plugins for several of those tools. The free Starter plan includes 30 seconds of Vision AI processing and five Studio imports per month, plus one month of cloud storage. Basic is listed at $12 a month, while the pricing note says paid plans start at $10/mo (annual). New accounts can try Plus or Pro for free for 7 days.
