When Lottielab fits better
The animation ships inside an app or a website as a small vector file, starts from Figma frames, reacts to people, or is shared across a product team. smooth.video does none of that.
Lottielab vs smooth.videoWhen smooth.video fits better
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.
The animation ends up as a video: a social post, a product teaser, a clip for a presentation or a README, maybe with photos, footage or music, and you want it in full HD or 4K without a plan.

- 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.
- Can I import Figma designs?
- Not directly. Export the pieces you want to move as PNG and drop them in, or bring a layered PSD to get each layer as its own element.
- Can smooth.video export Lottie?
- No. It exports MP4, WebM, GIF, PNG, JPG and WebP.
- Is HD export free?
- Yes. Every resolution is free, 4K included.
