The look

What Rubber Hose looks like.

Hand-inked black-and-white animation from the early sound era. Limbs are noodles, eyes are pies, every object is alive, and the whole world bounces on the beat.

How the agent builds it

The agent animates characters on twos with a boiling ink line and times everything to a steady beat: hops, squash on landing, stretch at the top. Sets stay in middle greys so the characters own pure black and white, and titles hop in on a wave.

Your prompt decides the subject and the story; the style fixes the rest. The agent renders stills, compares them with the style's rules and fixes what is off before it renders the whole video. Nothing here is stock footage or diffusion output: every frame is drawn by the code the agent wrote, as a 2D canvas scene.

Good for

  • playful brand mascots
  • music and rhythm stories
  • nostalgic ads and intros
  • everyday objects that come alive

Price

What a video costs.

Every style costs the same. The price depends on length and quality tier, and you see it before you submit. Plans start at $19 a month.

Standard is on every plan. Pro, which gives the agent more review passes, is on Creator and Studio. Videos up to 20 s are on Starter; longer ones need Creator.

If a job fails on our side, the credits come back.
