When Motionity fits better

You want to read, change or host the code yourself under an MIT license, or you need Lottie files as layers, chroma key or a built-in stock image search. smooth.video has none of those.

Motionity 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 liked the idea of Motionity, a free motion design tool in the browser with no account, and want one that's still updated, exports MP4 and transparent WebM, and has templates to start from.

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 open Motionity projects?

No. smooth.video opens its own .smooth files: bring your images, videos and audio over and rebuild the animation.

Where are my projects stored?

The project you're working on is autosaved in your browser, as with Motionity. Save it as a .smooth file to keep it before starting another, or to open it on another computer.

Can I export MP4?

Yes, as well as WebM with transparency, GIF, PNG, JPG and WebP.

Or skip the decision.

smooth.video is free, opens in a tab and exports without a watermark. Try it while you compare.
