Can an AI help me in smooth.video?

Yes, from outside: the project format is published at smooth.video/llms.txt, so ChatGPT, Claude or another assistant can write an animation that you open and adjust in the editor.

Does smooth.video have stock footage?

No. Bring your own images, videos and music, or start from a template.

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.
