Explanimate

A new repo launches on X and everyone is talking about it. You clone it, open your coding agent and ask it to explain. Then you ask again. Twenty questions later you still can't picture how the parts fit together. Explanimate turns that into one link and a short video. Give it a GitHub repo, an article, an X post or a plain topic. A voice explains the system while a whiteboard draws itself in time with the words, and every box on the board ties back to real files in the repo. Pick Short, Deep or Anatomy (a tour of how the codebase's parts fit), or leave it on Auto. After the video, tap any box for a deep dive on that part, ask a question about it, or ask what breaks at 10x traffic. The board isn't stuck in the video: open it in tldraw or Excalidraw and keep editing. It also runs inside your editor. Explanimate is an MCP server, so you can type /explanimate in Muse Code, Claude Code, Cursor or Codex. It explains the folder you're in and hands back the video and both boards in the chat. It's live at https://explanimate.co. Sign in with an email code, Google or GitHub. A Short video of facebook/react took about 6 minutes and cost about $0.45 to make. Across the live site the average is about $0.17 a video.
