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 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.

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.

Questions

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.
Is there a watermark?
No, at any resolution.
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.
Is HD export free?
Yes. Every resolution is free, 4K included.
