Can I make a video with a transparent background?

Yes. Set the scene's background to Transparent and export a WebM: the transparency is kept in the file.

Can smooth.video add subtitles automatically?

No. Type your captions as text elements and place them on the timeline.

Can I make a sharp GIF?

Yes. The GIF comes out at the size of your scene, whatever you set it to. Keep it short so the file stays light.

Can I use my own music?

Yes. Add an audio file, and it's included in the MP4 or WebM you export.

Is there a limit on projects?

No. Keep as many as you want in your browser, and save any of them as a .smooth file.

FlexClip vs smooth.video

When smooth.video fits better

You need an overlay, a title or a lower third with a transparent background, or a short animation in 4K, and you'd rather not pay for a plan to get it without a watermark.

You're animating a logo, a title, a product or a stat, want to set the motion yourself, and need a sharp GIF or a 4K video without paying for a plan.
