Lottielab as a European alternative to Adobe After Effects

Lottielab is not a compositing application for video effects.
Limitations to Consider
Lottielab focuses on Lottie and short animations, so it does not replace After Effects for compositing, keying or 3D. The pages we read show no postal address for Lottielab Ltd and no data location, and price amounts were not readable. For video-style compositing see Autograph.
