Framer introduces 'MotionML'—an AI assistant for choreography and micro-interactions

Design · 3 min read

MotionML converts intent prompts like 'subtle confirmation animation for primary CTA' into full interaction timelines, complete with easing curves and accessible motion-reduced alternatives. The assistant outputs ready-to-run code snippets for Framer projects and allows designers to preview transitions in-context.

The feature integrates with Framer's component system so motion can be attached declaratively to UI primitives and automatically exported as CSS or platform-specific animation scripts. MotionML also checks for motion accessibility, suggesting reduced-motion alternatives and offering contrast-preserving motion patterns.

Framer positions MotionML as a way to democratize micro-interaction design and reduce the friction of implementing polished motion in prototypes. Design teams reported faster handoffs to engineers when MotionML provided both visual previews and code exports.
