    Bento Features

    Built for expressive media

    One image, four useful capabilities

    Directional color01
    The channel split follows pointer movement, so the image responds to intent instead of playing a fixed loop.
    Native WebGL02
    The shader runs directly on the GPU without a scene library or animation dependency.
    Green dithered abstract gradient
    Any image source03
    Pass a local asset, CDN URL, or CMS image through one small component API.
    Responsive by default04
    Cover cropping and resize observation keep the treatment stable at every aspect ratio.
