About Kitsu
Kitsu is turning its studio pipeline tool into a client-facing review platform.
Kitsu, the open-source animation and VFX production tracker, is investing heavily in the review loop: onion skinning and shape annotations, an annotation eraser, public playlist links that let external reviewers comment without accounts, and client-visible comment toggles. In parallel it added OpenID Connect for studio SSO and production-setup tooling (project templates, retake-count and cross-task-type filters).
