UNFOLD.
Animated web stories

Stories that unfold.
Not slides that sit.

Turn an idea, a dataset or a piece of research into an animated presentation that lives on the web. Start from a ready-made slide or a story type, shape it in the Studio, and share a link — or export it as a PDF or PowerPoint file.

No code needed · Start from 20 story templates or a blank idea

What you can make

Start from what you need the audience to do.

Every template is built around a goal, not a layout. Choose the goal and Unfold hands you the arc, the scenes and the animation.

Make a mechanism click.

Walk an audience through a process, a system or a piece of research one step at a time, so the whole thing makes sense by the end.

How it works

From idea to link in three moves.

  1. 01

    Pick a story type

    Choose one of 20 templates, or describe your idea and let Unfold draft the whole deck from scratch.

  2. 02

    Shape it in the Studio

    Swap in your content and ask for changes in plain words. The preview updates as you go, and every edit can be undone.

  3. 03

    Share it anywhere

    Publish to a link anyone can open, or export a PDF or PowerPoint file — for a projector, an email or a meeting room.

The Studio

Talk to your deck. Watch it change.

The Studio is where every Unfold story is made. Describe the story you want, then refine it scene by scene — no timeline to scrub, no keyframes to set.

Edit by chatting
“Make scene 2 a map.” “Slow the reveal.” Plain words, real changes.
Live preview
The animated story replays beside the chat after every edit.
Safe to experiment
Every change is checked before it lands, and one keystroke undoes it.
Code when you want it
Open the Advanced panel to edit the story's JSON directly.

Building blocks

Fourteen things that move.

Every scene is made from animated primitives. Mix them in any story — a network that becomes a chart, a counter that lands on a map.

Who it's for

For people with something worth explaining.

Researchers & policy teams
Turn a working paper or field study into a brief a minister will actually sit through.
Founders & product teams
Pitch, launch or pivot with a story investors can open from a link and replay.
Educators & trainers
Run workshops and lessons where each idea builds on screen as you talk.
Analysts & storytellers
Walk readers through a dataset, a market or a history one reveal at a time.
See it in motion

The whole idea, in one minute.

Browse the gallery, pick something that already moves, recolour it to match your brand, fill in your own numbers, then publish a link and present it full screen. Here is what that looks like.
