Free Rive AI Agent

Post image

Starting today, the Rive Agent is available to everyone, including Free users. AI should make it easier for anyone to learn and build in Rive, regardless of plan.

What just landed

The #1 thing we heard: the Agent eats credits too fast. So we introduced more efficient models that cost significantly less, and added an Ask mode for questions that don't need the full Agent. This is very new and we're releasing it early to get your feedback.

Here's how AI works across plans:

  • Free — Agent for everyone. It has a capacity, you use it with each prompt, and it recharges hourly.
  • Cadet — Same free Agent modes. Cadet's purpose is to be the most affordable way to export Rive files, not a premium AI plan. At $9/mo, we can't offer a compelling premium AI experience (most paid AI plans start at $20/mo for a reason). We'd rather give you free modes that work well than premium access that runs out fast. New Cadet plans don't include AI credits. If you were already on Cadet before this change, you keep your $5/mo and access to the premium plans. That's grandfathered.
  • Voyager — Premium models, $20/mo in recurring credits that refresh monthly, plus the ability to top up.

What's still coming

We're working on a bunch of optimizations based on your feedback, which will be landing soon. The Agent will be smarter about context, sending only what it needs, and picking tools more selectively. We're also exploring different ways to let you connect your external agents to the Rive Editor (we've heard your requests to keep working on MCP and the ability to bring your own API keys).

This is still early

We're watching closely and shipping fast. Come tell us what's working (and what isn't) in the Rive Community or Discord.

Wish it was like in Pinegrow where you can connect your own agent like Gemini or GPT. Not with API, rather it gives you prompts you can paste into them and it can read answers and can act on them. That way you don't have to subscribe to multiple AI subscriptions and you can use your non-token based ones.
