AI Text Shimmer
AI Text Shimmer renders a repeating gradient sweep across any text making it the go-to choice for AI response placeholders, skeleton loading states, and any UI moment where content is being fetched or generated. It drops straight into your Framer project and every visual property is editable directly from the right panel. No code required after install.
Install: Copy the component URL from the Framer Marketplace and paste it into your project via Assets → Import
Place it: Drag AITextShimmer onto your canvas like any native Framer component
Set your text: Type directly into the Text field in the right panel. The text area supports multi-line input
Pick your colors: Set Base Color to your resting text color and Shimmer Color to the highlight that sweeps across it
Choose a font: Select from the preset font families or choose Custom and enter any font already loaded on your site
Set the speed: Adjust Duration (in seconds) to control how fast the shimmer cycles. 1.5–2.5s works best for most use cases
Set the layout: Choose Fixed to set an exact pixel width, or Fill Container to stretch to the parent frame automatically
Preview: The animation is intentionally paused in the Framer editor. Hit Play or publish to a staging URL to see it run live
