Awesome Inc,[1] also known as We Are: Awesome Incorporated, is an American animation studio founded in 2006 by Ashley Kohler and Drew Tyndell. Located in Atlanta, Georgia, Awesome Inc does both commercial and series production. Its clients include FX Networks, Adult Swim, Cartoon Network,[2] Nickelodeon, Wieden+Kennedy, Warner Bros.

Launched in 2006, Awesome Inc began as a motion design studio, primarily focused on the creation of promos, commercials, and network packaging. In 2011, Awesome Inc became the studio of record to animate and composite Adult Swim's satire-comedy Squidbillies, which continued to run for another 10 seasons before concluding in November 2021. Awesome Inc also animated and composited 4 seasons of Adult Swim's Aqua Teen Hunger Force.[5]
Upon the departure of Drew Tyndell as Creative Director and co-owner in 2013, Awesome Inc became a certified woman-owned business led by Ashley Kohler as President / CEO.[6] In February 2021, Awesome Inc was tapped by ViacomCBS to produce its first animated feature film Jodie.[7]
