Can I use a smooth.video animation in CapCut?

Yes. Export an MP4 and import it into your CapCut project like any other clip.

Can I edit my footage in smooth.video?

Can I bring my VistaCreate designs in?

Yes, as images: download your design or its parts as PNG, add them to a scene and animate them.

Can I schedule posts from smooth.video?

No. Export the video and post or schedule it with the tool you already use.

When VistaCreate fits better

You need lots of matching posts, flyers and print files from a big template and stock library, resized in one click and scheduled to your social accounts, with a simple animation on top.

VistaCreate vs smooth.video

When smooth.video fits better

You need the graphics, not the edit: an animated title, a stat, a logo reveal or a lower third, in 4K or on a transparent background, and you'd rather not unlock Pro for a font or a template.

The animation matters more than the layout: an intro, a lower third, an animated stat, a Reel. You want the timing and motion exactly right, and a 4K or transparent export for free.
