Cavalry builds animation from rules and data rather than only keyframes, which makes it strong for generative patterns, data-driven graphics and motion systems.

With the ProSuite launch it picked up around 50 new features. Canva has also announced a way for teams to edit text or colour inside an animation while the core scene stays locked, which would make templated motion much easier to hand over.

Best for

  • Motion designers who think in systems and repeats.
  • Animated data graphics and social templates.
