forever
Not a free tier. Not a trial. Just the whole studio, at zero dollars, for as long as you use it.
Includes everything in the studio
- Every drawing tool — rectangles, ellipses, polygons, stars, lines, arrows, pen, text & images
- Every animation preset — entrance, emphasis, exit, loop — and per-property keyframes with easing and spring physics
- Every style — fills, gradients, strokes, per-corner radius, drop shadow, blur
- Every export — .json, .lottie (dotLottie, ~3× smaller), copy JSON, copy HTML embed snippet
- Unlimited projects, saved locally with bulk backup & restore
- No account, no watermark, no trial timer, no usage cap
- Commercial use — your animations are yours
No paywall. No upgrade nag. Promise.
How is this free?
Three things keep the lights on
Transparency is the deal: here's exactly how a free studio with no paywalls makes sense.
Ads on the marketing site
Pages like this one carry ads. They’re what fund the studio, the bandwidth, and the people building it.
The editor stays ad-free
When you’re actually making something, no ads. Not in the canvas, not in the timeline, not in any tool panel. We don’t interrupt your work.
Tips, when it helps
If Lottie Max saved you time, you’re welcome to leave a tip. Optional, never required, never gated behind a feature.
Is this really free, or is it a free trial?
Really free. No trial timer, no usage cap, no credit card. Open the studio and start working — there’s nothing to upgrade to.
Can I use what I make commercially?
Yes. Animations you create are yours. Use them in client work, products, marketing, anywhere — no licensing fuss.
Are there any limits I should know about?
No project caps, no export caps, no file-size limits beyond what your browser can handle. Your projects live in your browser’s local storage; the backup & restore feature lets you move them between devices.
Will the free version get worse over time to push paid features?
No. The studio is the product. We’re not building a stripped-down version of something else — this is the whole thing.
