The #1 Choice for
Character-Led 2D Explainer Videos.
What used to take a scriptwriter, storyboard artist, illustrator, motion designer, voice talent, and editor now starts with one brief.
From Brief to Final Character Explainer.
No agency kickoff. No character design rounds. No waiting two weeks for version one. Describe the message and Pexo turns it into a finished 2D explainer video from script to animation.
Your Character, Consistent Every Time.
Set the presenter style, palette, typography, and tone once. Every 2D animation explainer video keeps the character and brand world visually aligned.
No Asset Hunting. No Puppet Build.
Characters, poses, scenes, diagrams, and UI moments are shaped around your message instead of forcing your 2D explainer video into a stiff stock template.
Built to Explain, Not Just Animate.
Every pose, line read, label, motion, and scene is there to improve comprehension. That is what separates strong character-led 2D explainer videos from generic animated content.
Every Scene, Timed Around the Presenter.
Script pacing, character beats, voice timing, transitions, captions, and motion rhythm all come together automatically. No timeline to manage by hand.

Frequently
Asked
Questions
What is a 2D explainer video?
A 2D explainer video uses flat animation, typography, diagrams, scenes, and often an animated character or presenter to explain a product, feature, process, or idea clearly. It is one of the most common formats for SaaS, onboarding, and product marketing.
How do I make 2D explainer videos with Pexo?
Describe what you need to explain, who it is for, what kind of character or presenter you want on screen, how long it should be, and the tone you want. Pexo turns that brief into a script, scenes, animation, voiceover, and export-ready explainer.
Can I make a 2D animation explainer video without After Effects?
Yes. Pexo handles the scripting, character design direction, scene design, motion, captions, music, and export so you do not need After Effects, a storyboard artist, or an animation team.
What kinds of 2D explainer videos can Pexo create?
Character-led product explainers, mascot walkthroughs, onboarding host videos, process stories, app demos, and brand explainers. If you can describe the message and the role of the presenter, Pexo can build the format around it.
Can I export 2D explainer videos for different platforms?
Yes. Export horizontal, vertical, or square formats as MP4, so the same character-led explainer can work on landing pages, social channels, ads, onboarding flows, and support docs.
Why use 2D explainer video for SaaS or product marketing?
Because 2D explainer videos make complex products easier to understand fast, and a strong presenter or mascot gives the message a more human and memorable feel. They help with conversion, onboarding, adoption, and launch communication without forcing viewers through long text or live demos.
