Biteable vs smooth.video

When smooth.video fits better

You need motion graphics, not characters: a title, a stat, a lower third, a logo reveal or an overlay for a video you're already making, and a yearly contract doesn't make sense for it.

You want to download a short animated video today without a subscription, and you'd rather set the motion yourself than start from a script.
