Whether youre a marketing pro or a design enthusiast, you can now create sleek marketing assets with Linearity Curve and then transform them into professional marketing motion graphics with Linearity Move. It all started in 2017 when we introduced Linearity Curve (formally Vectornator) to the world with the goal of making professional digital design accessible to everyone. Over the years our features expanded and our functionalities multiplied, transforming what started as a simple solution into a versatile software that now caters to design teams of all levels. Today, with a focus on offering AI-powered and collaborative tools for creating marketing visual assets and the imminent launch of Linearity Move, a groundbreaking motion graphics software that allows anyone to create animated content quickly and easily, Linearity aims to empower marketing professionals, graphic designers, illustrators, and animators to unlock their creative potential.

Real-time collaboration, commenting, proprietary cloud storage and advanced design features will be coming soon and enable marketers to breathe life into their creative ideas, fostering efficient workflows and unleashing their storytelling potential.
