SVG Animator
Make a logo or icon draw itself on, fade, slide, bounce or pop in, spin, float or pulse. The animation is written into the SVG, so it plays anywhere with no script, or download it as an animated GIF.
How it works
Upload an SVG
A logo, an icon, line art or a traced drawing. Every path and shape in it is animated; nothing is redrawn.
Choose how it moves
Draw on, fade, slide, bounce, blur, flip or pop in; or a loop for the whole artwork: pulse, spin, float, wiggle, heartbeat or a colour cycle. Set the length, the delay between shapes, and whether it repeats.
Change the colours
Every colour in the artwork is listed with a swatch: pick a new one for any of them, or put the whole design in one colour, and the animation plays in the new colours.
Download the SVG or a GIF
The SVG carries its animation as CSS, so it plays in a web page, an img tag or a slide with no script and no library. The GIF plays anywhere a picture does: Discord, Slack, email, social posts.
SVG animator: an SVG animation generator, free
This svg animator free tool makes a logo or icon draw itself on, fade in or pop in, and writes the svg animation into the file as CSS, so it plays anywhere an SVG shows: a website, an email signature, a slide. As an svg animation generator it needs no code and no timeline.
SVG animator online free: drop the SVG, choose the effect and timing, preview, and download. The svg animator download is the animated SVG itself. Loop it and you have an svg loading animation free for a spinner or splash screen.
Website animations made this way are tiny, sharp at any size and need no script. For svg animation examples, try the draw-on effect on a line logo and the pop effect on an icon set.
What is 2D animation?
2D animation is movement in a flat plane: shapes and drawings that move, fade or transform, as opposed to 3D models. Animated SVG is a lightweight kind of 2D animation made from vector graphics tools rather than video frames.
SVG animator AI?
The effect is applied to the paths already in your SVG, in order, so there is nothing to prompt. For an svg animator ai that draws new artwork, that is a different job; bring the SVG here to animate it.
How to make an SVG animation
- Drop in your logo or icon as an SVG (or convert a PNG to SVG first).
- Choose draw on, fade in, pop in or pulse, and set the timing.
- Download the animated SVG and place it like any image.

Why it matters
Ends as it started
When the animation finishes the artwork is exactly the original: a stroke added so a filled logo could be drawn fades away as its fill arrives.
One file, no code
No JavaScript, no Lottie player, no GIF. A few hundred bytes of CSS inside the SVG, and it stays a sharp vector at any size.
Respects reduced motion
The file carries a reduced-motion rule: placed inline in a web page, it shows anyone who has asked their device for less motion the finished artwork straight away, as accessibility guidelines ask.
Questions
Will the animated SVG work on my website?
Yes. Use it in an img tag or inline; the animation is CSS inside the SVG and runs in every current browser.
Will the animation play in an img tag?
Yes. CSS animation inside an SVG plays when the SVG is shown with an img tag, as a CSS background, or inline, in every current browser.
Why does my filled logo get an outline while it draws?
A fill has no line to draw. The tool gives each filled shape a temporary outline in its own colour, draws that, fades the fill in, and fades the outline out, so the final frame is your logo unchanged.
Can I change the colours of my SVG?
Yes. Each colour the artwork uses - fills, outlines and gradient stops - is listed under Colours with a swatch. Click one to choose a new colour, or use Everything in one colour to make it a single colour. The download, SVG or GIF, has the new colours; Original colours puts them back.
Can I make it loop?
Yes. Turn on Repeat and the animation plays forwards and back continuously; leave it off and it plays once and holds the finished artwork.
Does it work in email?
Most email apps block SVG altogether, animated or not. For email, use a PNG or GIF.
