Wideo 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 want a short animated video as a file you can put anywhere, today, in full HD or 4K, without a plan and without branding.

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 download my video for free?

Yes, always: as an MP4, a WebM, a GIF or a still image, at the size you set.

Can I add a voiceover?

Yes, recorded elsewhere: add the audio file and line it up on the timeline. There's no text-to-speech.

Or skip the decision.

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