When FlipaClip fits better
You want to draw: a character that walks, a flipbook, a rotoscoped clip, frame after frame with a stylus and onion skin. smooth.video has no frame-by-frame drawing.
FlipaClip vs smooth.videoWhen smooth.video fits better
You need a logo reveal, an animated post, a lower third or a YouTube intro, you want it today, and you'd rather not sign up for another tool or pay to remove a watermark.
You're on a computer, and your animation is things that move rather than drawings that change: a title, a logo, a sticker, a photo, a character cut into pieces that slide and turn.

- Can I import Jitter or Figma files?
- No. smooth.video imports images, video, audio and layered Photoshop files.
- Can an AI assistant make the animation for me?
- Yes. A smooth.video project is a plain JSON scene, and its whole format is published at smooth.video/llms.txt. Point ChatGPT, Claude or another assistant at it, describe your animation, and open the file it gives you in the editor.
- How can it be free?
- There is no server doing the work: the editor and every export run in your browser, so one more user costs nothing to serve.
- Is there a FlipaClip for PC?
- FlipaClip is made for phones, tablets, Chromebooks and Apple silicon Macs, with no official web or Windows version. smooth.video runs in a recent browser, on Windows too.
- Can I draw in smooth.video?
- Yes, with a simple brush: the drawing becomes an image you can move, scale, rotate and fade. You can't draw a different picture on every frame.
- Is there a watermark?
- No, and there are no ads.
