# Motion Copilot
Motion Copilot helps you generate keyframe animations from simple text prompts or ask questions about motion and animation principles.
### Getting started
1. Select an object on the canvas
2. Choose a mode: **Animate** or **Question**
3. Enter your prompt
4. Apply the animation or review the response
### Modes
**Animate**\
Describe the motion you want and Motion Copilot generates editable keyframes with appropriate timing and easing. You can refine the result manually in the timeline.
**Questions**\
Ask Motion Copilot questions about motion design, timing, easing, or animation best practices. This mode does not create keyframes and is intended for learning and guidance.
### Example prompts
**Animate**
“A loading spinner with pastel colors”
“Beat like a heart”
“Bounce in from the left”
“Fade in smoothly, 0.5s”
**Questions**
"What easing works best for button hover animations?"
"How do I make a bounce feel more natural?"
"When should I use ease in vs ease out?"
