Can I use a Renderforest template in smooth.video?

No, but smooth.video has its own gallery of intros, logo reveals and titles, and every element in them can be changed.

Is my video rendered on a server?

No. The export runs in your browser, so there's no queue and nothing to upload. A long 4K video takes a while on a slower computer.

Can I import Figma designs?

Not directly. Export the pieces you want to move as PNG and drop them in, or bring a layered PSD to get each layer as its own element.

Can smooth.video export Lottie?

No. It exports MP4, WebM, GIF, PNG, JPG and WebP.

Yes. Every resolution is free, 4K included.

When Lottielab fits better

The animation ships inside an app or a website as a small vector file, starts from Figma frames, reacts to people, or is shared across a product team. smooth.video does none of that.

Lottielab vs smooth.video

When smooth.video fits better

You want an intro, a logo sting or an animated title in full HD or 4K without buying a plan, and you'd like to change how things move, not only the text inside a scene.

The animation ends up as a video: a social post, a product teaser, a clip for a presentation or a README, maybe with photos, footage or music, and you want it in full HD or 4K without a plan.
