Cascadeur 2026.2, from Nekki, is a standalone animation program built around a simple idea: keyframe animation should respect physics, and smart tools should do the heavy lifting between your poses. You set the key poses and the software helps with the rest, offering AI assisted posing from fewer control points, automatic inbetweening between keyframes, and physics tools that add weight, balance and believable falls. It also cleans up motion capture, fixing sliding feet and knee pops. Version 2026.2 adds animation layers, easing controls, BVH import and new interface languages. Updated Aug 22, 2026.
