Mojo vs smooth.videoWhen smooth.video fits better
Your video is made of text, logos, photos, shapes and numbers, you'd rather not count exports, and you want 4K or a transparent overlay without paying for a plan.
You work on a computer, want the motion to be your own rather than a template's, or need the same animation in several sizes, for free and without a watermark.

Questions
Does smooth.video have characters?
No. It animates text, images, video, shapes and drawings. To animate a character, bring it in as an image, or as a layered PSD to move its parts separately.
Can I add a voiceover?
Yes, recorded elsewhere: add the audio file to the scene and line it up with the animation on the timeline.
Is there a limit on exports?
No. Export as many times as you want, at any size.
Can I post the video to Instagram or TikTok?
Yes. Export a 1080×1920 MP4, send it to your phone and post it like any other video.
Can I change the timing of a template?
Yes, all of it: drag any element along the timeline, change its entrance, or move it at any point in time.
Is there a watermark?
No, and no template is locked.
Or skip the decision.
