Bring your hand creations to life. Apate is a hand pose recording app built for animators, linguists, and ML engineers.
For Animators
Record a hand pose session and export in the format that fits your
workflow:
- Hand skeleton video (.mov) — clean animation ready for compositing
- GIF — shareable looping preview (free, with watermark)
- PNG Sequence — frame-by-frame export for full control
- AE Keyframe Data — 21 joint keyframe files for After Effects
- FCP XML — sync raw video and hand video directly in Final Cut Pro
For ML Engineers
Live confidence scores for all hand joints are displayed during capture,
making it easy to debug Vision framework output and evaluate detection
quality.
Free & Pro
GIF export is free. Unlock all export formats with Apate Pro — $4.99/month
or $39.99/year.

Apate was the goddess of deceit, trickery, and guile — one of the spirits
released from Pandora's Box, daughter of Nyx (night) and Erebus (darkness).
