From camera roll to clay

Same moment.
A more tactile world.

Every example starts with a different kind of image. The strongest transformations keep what matters—the expression, silhouette, color story, and point of view.

Three honest steps

Your tiny set,
built in minutes.

No prompt engineering is required. You provide the visual idea; the presets handle the material, lighting, and stop-motion character.

Start with an image
  1. 1

    Choose a clear image

    Upload a JPEG, PNG, or WebP up to 10 MB. We resize and remove image metadata in your browser.

  2. 2

    Pick the clay mood

    Go playful, polished, or cinematic. Match your original frame or choose a social-friendly crop.

  3. 3

    Compare and download

    Inspect the transformation with the before/after slider, then save the JPG while the temporary result is available.

Better source, better sculpt

Give the clay
something to hold onto.

  • 01

    Keep the main subject clear

    A distinct person, pet, or object gives the model a confident silhouette to rebuild.

  • 02

    Use even, readable light

    Visible facial features and object edges translate better than deep shadows or heavy blur.

  • 03

    Leave a little breathing room

    Tight crops can lose hair, ears, or product edges when a new aspect ratio is selected.

  • 04

    Make one extra request at most

    A short note like “keep the red scarf” is more reliable than a long list of competing edits.

01What is an image to claymation generator?

It is an AI image-editing tool that restyles a photo to look like a handcrafted stop-motion clay scene while trying to preserve the original subject and composition.

02Can I use photos of pets, objects, and places?

Yes. The first version supports general images, including people, pets, products, food, objects, and travel photos. Clear subjects and uncluttered lighting usually produce the strongest results.

03How many free claymation images can I create?

You receive 10 daily credits, enough for two watermarked images at 5 credits each. Subscriber plans keep the daily allowance and add 60 or 300 monthly credits.

04Are my uploaded images stored?

We never auto-publish source images or results. Your compressed image is sent to Replicate for processing, where API inputs, outputs, and logs normally expire after about one hour. Account and billing records contain no image pixels.

05Can I use the generated image commercially?

The editing model supports commercial use, but you remain responsible for having rights to the source image and for reviewing the result before publishing or selling it.

06Why did my image fail or get rejected?

A request may fail because of an unsupported file, safety filtering, temporary model capacity, network interruption, or a usage limit. The tool shows a specific recovery step whenever possible.
