GPU and Network rendering capability for faster production. Powerful curve and dope-sheet Editor with a fluid interface. It offers various keying tools for your production needs. Powerful 2D and Planar tracker for tracking jobs. Multi-layered rotoscoping with stroke capability.

A huge collection of well-maintained and ever-increasing plugins can be found in the official community plugins repository of Natron. The collective effort from artists, developers, and researchers are combined in one application to make a difference. The program uses easy to understand python scripting language for even tweaking such gizmos or “PYPLUG” in a generic text editor! Creating PyPlug is easy and fun and not to mention, highly productive in the production pipeline. All nodes can be grouped and can be shared across all artists, studios, community, and developers as gizmos or “plugin” as well. It has some innovative technologies for organizing nodes. It has some strong keying or matte generation tools that have been developed from the main OFX software developers and a plethora of tools from the open-source plugin developing community. It has a powerful 2D and Planar tracker to help reduce hours of rotoscoping to meet personal or client deadlines. The app has a flexible Roto and Rotopaint tool-set that can generate unlimited layers of masks, mattes, and shapes. It may seem to be a simple compositing application but it does have layers of complexity that will allow your creativity to reach new heights. On the surface, Natron has a powerful GUI interface that is a flexible and intuitive multi-platform node-based engine.
