Pika Frames - Keyframe-Controlled AI Video Generation | Picsart
Pika Frames: precision AI video with keyframe control
Picsart’s AI Video Generator has integrated Pika Frames, Pika Labs’ keyframe-based video generation model that gives creators precise control over AI-generated motion. Instead of relying solely on text prompts, Pika Frames lets you define visual anchor points and the AI fills in smooth, natural transitions between them. Create deterministic, high-quality video content with the creative control that prompt-only models can’t match.
Pika Frames is the keyframe transition feature from Pika Labs, part of the Pika 2.2 model. It lets creators upload start and end images as visual anchor points, and the AI generates smooth, natural motion between them. Supporting up to 5 keyframes per sequence with customizable transition durations from 1 to 10 seconds each, Pika Frames gives creators deterministic control over AI video output that pure text-to-video models can’t provide. It supports 7 aspect ratios covering every major platform format.
Pika Frames capabilities
Pika Frames excels at giving creators frame-level control over AI video generation. Define up to 5 keyframes as visual anchor points and the model interpolates smooth, natural motion between them with customizable transition timing. It supports loop animations for seamless infinite cycles, PikaScenes for composing shots from separate character and environment references, and 7 aspect ratios from landscape to portrait covering every social platform format.
What you can create with Pika Frames
Define start and end images as anchor points, and let the AI generate smooth, controlled motion between them with predictable, high-quality results.
How Pika Frames works inside Picsart
Picsart integrates Pika Frames directly into its AI Playground and AI Video Generator, giving creators keyframe-based video control without dealing with the model directly. It works alongside tools like the AI Voice Generator and AI Video Editor, enabling creators to combine precise keyframe transitions with audio and editing for complete video production workflows.
Why creators choose Pika Frames
Pika Frames gives creators something no other AI video model offers: deterministic keyframe control over generated motion. Instead of hoping a text prompt produces the right movement, creators define exactly where the video starts and ends. This makes it ideal for product animations, morphing effects, and precise creative transitions. Integrated into Picsart’s AI Video Generator, it brings frame-level creative control to every creator’s workflow.

Pika Frames FAQ
Pika Frames is a keyframe-based AI video generation feature from Pika Labs that lets creators define visual anchor points (start/end images) and generates smooth transitions between them, giving precise control over AI video output.
Picsart has integrated Pika Frames into its AI Video Generator, allowing users to create keyframe-controlled video content directly within the platform.
Pika Frames uniquely uses keyframe-based control instead of relying solely on text prompts. Creators upload anchor images and the AI interpolates motion between them, delivering predictable, deterministic results.
Pika Frames supports up to 5 keyframes per sequence, with customizable transition durations from 1 to 10 seconds between each keyframe pair.
No. Pika Frames works within Picsart’s AI Video Generator with an intuitive interface. Simply upload your anchor images and the AI handles the motion generation.
Access depends on the specific tool and subscription plan. Pika Frames is part of the AI models used across Picsart’s platform, with availability varying by feature and tier.
Yes. Videos generated through Picsart’s tools powered by Pika Frames can be used for marketing, social media, brand content, and other commercial applications, subject to Picsart’s terms of use.
