You want a whole video from a sentence: a script, a voiceover, stock clips and AI-generated shots assembled for you, then refined with a team. smooth.video doesn't generate anything on its own.

When Visme fits better

You make whole presentations, infographics and reports, with charts built from data, interactive publishing, forms and a team that approves the brand. smooth.video makes the animated pieces, not the document.

Visme vs smooth.video

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 need an animated stat, chart or title as a video or a GIF, sharper than 1366 pixels or on a transparent background, and don't want a plan just to download it.

Questions

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.

Is there a watermark?

No, never.

Can I put the animation in a presentation?

Yes. Export an MP4 or a GIF and insert it into PowerPoint, Keynote or Google Slides.

Can I import data into a chart?

No. A chart here is made of shapes you size by hand and numbers you type, which can count up as they appear. It suits a handful of figures, not a dataset.

Or skip the decision.

smooth.video is free, opens in a tab and exports without a watermark. Try it while you compare.
