Hi Product Hunt! We're Fable, the web-based motion design platform that's powerful for pros, intuitive for beginners, and collaborative for teams. Today, we're excited to announce that after 3+ years in the making – and lots of secret alpha and beta testing – we're making Fable available to everyone! We're building Fable because motion is everywhere, but creating pro-grade moving content is intimidating, and in a world where cloud-based software is proving the future of creative work thrives in a browser, motion is the big missing piece that's stuck offline. Fable is built on three principles: Make it pro-grade, make it for everyone, and make it collaborative. This means at the heart of Fable is a powerful toolkit, which includes a vector engine, rich effects, and cloud exports to GIF, MP4, ProRes, and even Lottie. This power is matched with accessibility in a tool that feels at home for designers, and http://fable.app/academy is packed with learning to help newcomers finally get started with motion. And lastly, with Fable, teams have a centralized workspace to manage files, assets, and permissions, projects can be shared with just a link, and reviewing happens right inline without ever leaving the app. Our mission is to empower all creators with access and opportunities to tell stories. We're building software for the next generation of creators, and we can't wait to welcome you to our community. Please drop questions and feedback into the comments! We'd love to hear what you think and we're not even 1% towards our vision, so help us steer the roadmap! –Team Fable

@chrisboardman congratulations on your new launch πŸš€ Just as you said, I’m not even on the 1% towards my vision. This is to help you steer the roadmap πŸ‘
Neil Mathew
Holy crap! This is incredible! Gonna try this out asap!
Steven Rueter
Figma : Illustrator :: Fable : After Effects … :: Fiction : Photoshop (startup idea…? πŸ€”) Nice work @chrisboardman! I can tell a lot of work went into this. My only thought is why you didn’t use Fable to make a GIF for your PH product image.
Chris Boardman
@rueter :: We couldn't agree more! And totally – unfortunately we had to prioritize other pieces for the big day but hopefully folk can use Fable to create their own much easier from now on. Appreciate you being here!
Sam Seely
Super excited about this. There is such a need for a cloud-based, collaborative motion design tool β€” glad to see the team at Fable going after this problem. Congrats on the launch, @chrisboardman!
Chris Boardman
@samseely Thanks so much, Sam!

Looks interesting. The google sign up doesn't work though
Chris Boardman
@dexter_wang1 Thanks Dexter! We're having some trouble with Amazon but we're on the case and hopefully we should be up again soon. Thanks so much for your patience!

Loving the implementation of fable. Kudos to you and the entire team!
Chris Boardman
@rajan_e_edot_ Appreciate it lots, Rajan, and welcome to the community!
Emilio Lopez
This is fuckin hype
Chris Boardman
@hatertate We're hyped you're into it, Emilio!
Emilio Lopez
@chrisboardman but was the launch video made with Fable? 😏 Well done, btw. Who was the motion designer behind it, would love to connect with them!

I've seen a couple of animation tools. The cloud-based, browser interface makes this a big deal. You don't have to have special software or years of experience to make engaging animations. Imagine all the places you can ship your animations. Plus it seems collaborative. Congrats to the team. Looking forward to more launches from you.
Chris Boardman
@edmundamoye Really appreciate this, thank you!

Congratulations on the launch, @chrisboardman! Fable looks super cool. I had some difficulty in signing up. The tab automatically closed after the Octa verification page (I'm using Brave on MacPro) but I really love these 30-click videos. That Skillshare experience coming in super handy πŸ˜‰ https://www.fable.app/academy/30...
Chris Boardman
Thanks so much @adityavsc! 😊 And really appreciate the bug report, hmm... we're investigating to see what could be going on with Brave πŸ™

Ayaz Karimov
This looks very interesing! I`ve shared this tool with our designer. We were suffering to do something on Adobe, now will give a shot to your product <3 Good luck!
Chris Boardman
@ayaz_karimov1 Awesome, Ayaz! Just reach out with any questions, we'd be happy to help and thanks for being part of what we're building!
Manisha Joshi
We've been looking for a product like this. ?makers is it easy for absolute beginners? I have no design experience but would love to learn creating.
Chris Boardman
@manisha_joshi1 We hear this a lot and it's our mission to make it all more accessible. I'd recommend starting with our http://fable.app/academy and especially our new Keyframes video, which should get you up and running in under 4 mins. Reach out with any questions though, we're always happy to help!
Maria
Brilliant! *_* Motion design is in the peek needs nowadays, and this platform provides a great help to designers! I simple can't wait to try it out! *_* Thanks for implementing such an idea, and big congrats on the launch! ^_^ Could you tell me please, is Fable integrated with Wix and/or WordPress? :))
Rye Bennett
Congrats @chrisboardman this is amazing! Just shared with my team - can't wait to play around with this next time we are working on anything animated. I just signed up and I already understand Fable better than I ever understood After Effects ;)
Chris Boardman
@rye_bennett Thank you soooo much, Rye! So kind, and just reach out with any questions, we'd be happy to help the team out :)
Bobbu Abadeer
I love the potential of this, though the import from Figma doesn't seem to quite be working yet, so I'm gonna have to tweak my workflow to handle that. Nice work on the product, I look forward to seeing how it grows!
