When InVideo fits better

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 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 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.

Questions

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.
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.
