Early access

Request access to DataDriver.

We're letting studios in slowly so every new seat gets a real onboarding, not a doc dump.

Invite-only during early access. Each invite includes the signed ZXP, a companion pairing key, and a 20-minute call to rig your first template against your real data.

AE 2022+ · macOS · Windows

AE 2022+ · macOS · Windows · localhost-only companion · no cloud account.

What arrives when your seat opens

The AE panel (ZXP)

A signed extension that drops into After Effects in about two minutes. Nothing weird, nothing custom.

Signed CEP extension for AE 2022+, macOS and Windows. Installs via ExMan or by dropping the folder into your Extensions directory.

Companion access

A companion app you can run on your own machine. Optional — but most designers end up keeping a tab open.

Pairing key for the localhost companion. First launch links it to your panel via the local filesystem bridge.

A short onboarding call

Twenty minutes with us. Bring an actual project; you'll leave with it half-rigged.

20-minute working session — we walk through rigging your real template against your real spreadsheet, including palette and time-rule setup if your project needs them.

Who DataDriver is for

  • Motion designers shipping campaigns with 20+ variations
  • Studios rendering one comp across markets, formats, or product lines
  • Producers tired of being the bottleneck between “the spreadsheet's done” and “AE is rendering”
  • Teams whose Airtable / Notion / sheet is the source of truth and shouldn't be re-typed into AE

On the roadmap

What's coming next

A few capabilities are in the plan rather than in v1 — worth knowing up front so there are no surprises:

  • Cloud rendering (v1 renders on your workstation)
  • Multi-machine render dashboards
  • Client review and approval portals
  • Airtable connector (REST works as a stand-in for now)

Each is in active design. Early-access feedback shapes the order they ship.

Why invite-only, for now

We're a small team, and DataDriver replaces a workflow people depend on. Every early seat gets hands-on onboarding, a direct line to support, and influence on the roadmap. When we open up, the invite list goes first.

Ready when you are.

Takes about thirty seconds. We'll be in touch soon.
