Can I make a sharp GIF?

Yes. The GIF comes out at the size of your scene, whatever you set it to. Keep it short so the file stays light.

Can I use my own music?

Yes. Add an audio file, and it's included in the MP4 or WebM you export.

Is there a limit on projects?

No. Keep as many as you want in your browser, and save any of them as a .smooth file.

A free alternative to FlexClip

FlexClip is an online video maker for marketing and social videos: templates, stock footage and music, AI subtitles, voices and avatars, and animations that come in, go out or loop. Its free plan exports 720p with a watermark and keeps 12 projects. smooth.video is free without those limits: every element sits on a keyframe timeline, and exports come out clean, at the size you set.

You're animating a logo, a title, a product or a stat, want to set the motion yourself, and need a sharp GIF or a 4K video without paying for a plan.

When FlexClip fits better

You assemble marketing videos from stock clips and music, need AI subtitles, a voiceover or an avatar, or record your screen for a tutorial. smooth.video has no stock library and no AI tools.
