About AutoCover

AutoCover is a word-level hover interaction component that allows you to highlight a single word inside any text. It adds a smooth animated cover, subtle beams, particles, and decorative dots, without affecting layout, spacing, or typography.

The component is lightweight, responsive, and designed to work seamlessly with Framer’s typography system.

How it works

You provide a full text string
Specify one word to highlight
On hover, that word reveals an animated cover with beams and particles
The rest of the text remains completely untouched

Smart default behavior

If no highlight word is provided, AutoCover automatically highlights the last word in the text.This ensures the component always works out of the box without extra setup.
