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 open Motionity projects?

No. smooth.video opens its own .smooth files: bring your images, videos and audio over and rebuild the animation.

Where are my projects stored?

In your browser, as with Motionity. Save a project as a .smooth file to keep a copy or move it to another computer.

Yes, as well as WebM with transparency, GIF, PNG, JPG and WebP.

InVideo vs Motionity

InVideo and Motionity side by side, as of September 2026: what each one costs, what it's made for, and when smooth.video, a free animation tool that runs in your browser with no account, does the job instead.

You want to read, change or host the code yourself under an MIT license, or you need Lottie files as layers, chroma key or a built-in stock image search. smooth.video has none of those.

When smooth.video fits better

You know what the animation should look like and want to build it exactly: a logo reveal, a title, an animated stat, a product badge, without spending credits or hoping a prompt gets it right.

You liked the idea of Motionity, a free motion design tool in the browser with no account, and want one that's still updated, exports MP4 and transparent WebM, and has templates to start from.
