Lottie Creator

Lottie Creator is a browser animation editor for Lottie and dotLottie files, with keyframe tools, SVG import, state machines, motion tokens and an AI Motion Copilot that builds editable animations from prompts.

Lottie Creator is a browser-based animation editor from LottieFiles for building Lottie and dotLottie motion assets without opening After Effects. The canvas works on layers, shapes, text and keyframes, so teams can assemble UI micro-interactions such as loaders, toggles and buttons alongside larger illustrations and character sequences. SVGs can be dragged in or pasted with path detail preserved, and finished work exports as Lottie JSON, dotLottie, optimized Lottie, GIF, MP4, MOV or WebM, with CDN links for web, iOS and Android delivery. The editor carries professional controls that motion designers expect: a graph editor for easing curves and overshoots, keyframe assistance for retiming and mirroring, mattes and masks, parenting, blend modes, nested scenes, motion paths, trim paths, anchor point control, a duplicator for repeated elements and a real-time preview that matches the render. For interactive work, State Machines wire animations to clicks, hovers, user inputs, data and custom logic, while Motion Tokens expose text, colors, position and opacity as reusable properties connected to live data. Multi-animation support bundles several animations into one lightweight dotLottie file so state and theme variants ship together. AI is woven through the workflow rather than bolted on. Motion Copilot turns a written prompt into an editable animation with keyframes, shapes, text, gradients and shadows. Separate prompt tools generate vector graphics, themes and state machines, and an MCP connection lets compatible AI agents build or edit files directly. A plugin system with community extensions adds spring curves, physics simulation, motion presets and a universal file importer, and Motion System stores presets, easing curves, colors and fonts for team-wide reuse. Freelancers get a lightweight studio with private preview links and community publishing; teams get cloud projects and shared motion governance. Compared with After Effects plus a Lottie export plugin, it trades deep compositing power for browser access, native interactivity and a much shorter path from idea to shippable dotLottie. The free tier is real but capped at five exports, so anyone producing regularly will need a paid workspace.
