Why creators pick ToonZap to cartoon their photos
One platform for everything cartoon: image transformation, talking avatars, photo animation and AI voices — all running right in your browser.
A real redraw, not a filter
ToonZap does not slap a filter on your picture. The AI analyzes faces, clothing, lighting and background, then genuinely redraws the whole scene in the style you picked — you are instantly recognizable, just in cartoon form.
Photos that talk, dance and move
Go beyond static images: make a photo speak with lip-synced talking avatars, animate a still portrait into video, or have your photo copy an entire dance routine, music included.
AI voices built in
Turn any script into a natural-sounding voiceover with 21 AI voices, or record your own. Perfect for narrated videos, talking avatars, and social media content.
Powered by the best AI models
ToonZap runs on top-tier generation models — Google Gemini, Google Veo, Flux and Kling for images and video, ElevenLabs for voice — so every result comes out sharp, consistent and ready to publish.

How it works — cartoon yourself in 3 steps
No software to install, no tutorials to watch. From photo to finished cartoon in under a minute, right in your browser.
1. Upload your photo
A selfie, family photo, pet portrait or landscape — drag and drop your image and the AI handles the rest. No design skills needed.
2. Pick a style
Choose from 14 styles: anime, Disney-style, Pixar-style 3D, Ghibli, comics, watercolor, chibi, pixel art and more. A preview guides every choice.
3. Download your cartoon
In 10 to 30 seconds your photo is redrawn in high quality. Download it, share it, or run it through another style for a different look.
Free to start, built to scale with you
You do not need a credit card to see what ToonZap can do. Every new account comes with 40 free welcome credits — enough to turn 3 photos into cartoons and compare styles side by side. Videos, dances and talking avatars cost more than that: they start with a credit pack, from €4.99 for 150 credits with no subscription.
When you are ready for more, a subscription gives you monthly credits and removes the watermark (a credit pack removes it for 30 days); AI voices come with a subscription, and full commercial rights with the Starter plan and above. Check the pricing page for details, or browse the community gallery to see what other creators are making.
