Rive Operational

Rive brings design, animation, interaction logic, and data control into one workflow. Users can draw or import graphics in the editor, create real-time animations, build interactions with state machines, listeners, and data binding, and deploy files to websites, mobile apps, and game engines through runtimes. Results created in the editor can be used as actual product content.

Product Designers

Create responsive interfaces, motion components, and interactive product experiences for mobile apps and websites, and validate results directly in the editor.

Animators and Visual Designers

Create real-time animations, character motion, vector graphics, and branded visual content using tools such as timelines, bones, meshes, and paths.

Frontend and Application Developers

Integrate Rive files into Web, iOS, Android, Flutter, React, or React Native projects, and control graphics and interactions through code.

Game and Interactive Experience Teams

Use interactive graphics and user interfaces in game engines such as Unity, Unreal, and Defold, with support for runtime rendering.

All-in-One Editor

Complete vector design, animation, and interaction development in one environment, allowing designers and developers to collaborate around the same deployable file.

State Machine Interactions

Define interactions by configuring animations as states and using transitions, inputs, listeners, and state machine layers to create graphics that respond to user actions.

Data Binding

Connect interface elements to data to design, build, and drive interactive interfaces and animations with dynamic content.

Responsive Layouts

Create components that rearrange and adapt as dimensions change, making interactive designs fit different interface spaces.

Real-Time Animation

Create real-time animations with tools for timelines, interpolation, animation blending, bones, meshes, constraints, inverse kinematics, and paths.

Asset Import and Export

Import assets such as SVG, PNG, JPEG, WebP, PSD, and Lottie JSON, and export Rive files as well as videos, GIFs, and PNG sequences.

Team Collaboration and Reuse

Support real-time team collaboration, shared file browsing, and component library reuse, helping multiple people maintain consistent design content across Rive projects.

Runtime Deployment

Embed Rive files into websites, apps, and games through open-source runtimes, or connect to Framer, Webflow, and Wix Studio using plugins.

Integrated Design-to-Runtime Workflow

The editor, file format, and runtimes form an end-to-end workflow, allowing interactive experiences created in the editor to be used directly in websites, apps, and games.

Open-Source Runtimes

Rive provides open-source runtimes for Web, Apple, Android, React, React Native, Flutter, and C++.

State-Driven Interactive Graphics

Define interactions at the animation layer using state machines, transitions, listeners, and inputs, enabling graphics to respond to actions such as clicks, touches, and hovers.

GPU-Accelerated Vector Rendering

Rive Renderer is its GPU-accelerated vector graphics engine. According to the official website, it can deliver 120fps rendering and consistent graphics quality.
