Rive Consultancy & Training

Rive is a powerful tool for interactive motion, but it's easy to overinvest before knowing if it's the right fit.

This call helps you quickly understand how Rive would work for your product, using real examples and honest guidance. No sales pitch, just clarity.

What you get from a session

A focused conversation designed to give you confidence in your animation strategy - whether that includes Rive or not.

Clarity on fit

Understand whether Rive makes sense for your product, your team, and your timeline - before you invest days or weeks.

Real examples

See how Rive would apply to your specific use case, with demonstrations from real-world production work.

Honest guidance

If Rive isn't the right fit, we'll tell you. You'll leave with useful direction either way - no wasted time.

Clear next steps

Walk away with an actionable plan: what to build, how to integrate, and what to avoid.

Who is this for

Designers
New to Rive

Understand what Rive can do, how it compares to your current tools, and whether it's worth learning. Get a practical sense of the workflow before committing.

Developers
Integrating Rive

Get guidance on runtime setup, state machine integration, performance optimization, and framework-specific patterns for React, Flutter, or native platforms.

Teams
Evaluating Rive for production

Understand the full picture: team workflow, design-to-dev handoff, file management, performance at scale, and whether Rive fits your existing stack.

Or anyone simply unsure if Rive is "worth it." That's exactly the question this call answers.

What we can help with

Every session is adapted to your situation. Here are common topics we cover - but you can bring any Rive-related question.

Is Rive right for my project?

Evaluate fit based on your product type, team skills, performance requirements, and timeline constraints.

State machine architecture

Design clean, maintainable state machines that scale. Avoid common pitfalls like deeply nested states and circular transitions.

Performance optimization

File size reduction, rendering strategy (Canvas vs WebGL), lazy loading patterns, and mobile-specific optimizations.

Framework integration

React hooks, Vue composables, Flutter widgets - get the integration pattern right for your stack from the start.

Design-to-dev handoff

Set up a workflow where designers own animation and developers integrate with minimal back-and-forth.

Migration from Lottie or CSS

Understand what translates, what doesn't, and how to incrementally adopt Rive alongside existing animation approaches.
