Open Paraplex

Edit Lottie files layer by layer, in 3D.

Drop a .json or .lottie file on the canvas and it comes in as Paraplex layers: vector shapes, groups, text and pictures, with their keyframes and easing. Change anything, restyle it with real materials, light and a camera, then send the flat parts back out as a Lottie any player plays, or export the whole scene as MP4, WebM, GIF or a live embed.

Chrome logo reveal template made in Paraplex: a flat logo mark turns out of the dark as beveled chrome, lit like a studio, before the name closes in beside it

From Lottie file to finished scene.

Paraplex reads a Lottie into the same layers you'd draw by hand, so nothing in it is locked.

Drop

Drop the file in.

Drop a .json or .lottie file on the canvas or open it from Menu › Import Lottie…, or let the assistant bring one in from a link.

Edit

Every layer, every key.

Shapes, groups, text and pictures arrive with their keyframes and easing, ready to retime, recolor and rewrite.

Stage

Give it depth and light.

Depth, bevels and materials such as glass or chrome, lit in a real 3D scene and filmed by a camera you can move.

Export

Send it back out.

The flat parts as a Lottie again, or the whole scene as MP4, WebM, GIF, a PNG sequence or a live embed.

Lottie in, layers out.

Drop a .json or .lottie file on the canvas, or open it from Menu › Import Lottie…, and Paraplex reads it into native layers, nested the way it was built: vector shapes, groups, text and pictures, each with its keyframes and easing. It isn't a sealed clip you can only scale and loop. It's a scene you can take apart.

Anything the file uses that can't come across is listed for you rather than silently dropped: expressions, effects, masks, mattes and repeaters stay behind, so you know what to rebuild.

Only need a video of a Lottie? Use the free Lottie to MP4 tool.

Change any layer, any key.

Select a layer and change it the way you'd change anything drawn in Paraplex: recolor a shape, rewrite a word, edit a path's anchors, or drag its keyframes to retime it. Swap an easing for one of Paraplex's curves or springs, or ask the AI assistant to make the change and Apply it when it looks right.

The Lottie's layers sit in the Layers panel like any others, so you can group, hide or isolate them, or select several and change them at once.

Flat vectors, real light.

Every Paraplex scene is real 3D, and a Lottie's shapes become part of it. Give a closed shape depth and a bevel, put it in glass, chrome or one of 21 one-click material looks, and light it with studio lights or an HDRI so the highlights travel as it moves.

Then add what a Lottie never had: a camera move, a reflective floor, particles or a backdrop, all in the same scene and all keyframeable.

More on materials and light: 3D motion graphics.

Back out as Lottie, or as video.

Menu › Export Lottie… writes the flat parts of a scene, shapes, text, pictures and groups with their keyframes and curves, as a Lottie any player plays, ready for an app, a site or a handoff. Lottie has no room for lights, 3D, models, particles, effects or camera moves, so those stay out of the file, and Paraplex tells you which.

When the 3D is the point, export the whole scene instead: MP4, WebM, GIF or a PNG sequence, in every aspect ratio from one scene, or transparent WebM to lay over a page or an edit. Or publish it as a live embed that answers hover, click and scroll.

With no background behind it: transparent video export.

Templates built from logos, UI and type.

Lottie work is mostly logos, icons, interface and type. These templates start from the same kind of shapes, then add what a Lottie file can't hold: depth, light and a camera. Drop a Lottie into any of them.

Questions about the Lottie editor

How do I edit a Lottie file online?

Open Paraplex in your browser and drop the .json or .lottie file on the canvas, or open it from Menu › Import Lottie…, and it comes in as layers: vector shapes, groups, text and pictures, with their keyframes and easing. Select any layer to change its color, words, shape or timing, then export it as a Lottie again or as a video.

Does it open .lottie files as well as JSON?

Yes. Paraplex imports Lottie animations saved as .json files and as .lottie files. Drop either on the canvas, or drop several files at once and each finds its own place.

What doesn't come across from a Lottie?

Expressions, effects, masks, mattes and repeaters are left out on import. Paraplex lists anything it leaves out instead of dropping it silently, so you know what to rebuild. If an animation leans heavily on those, keep editing it in the tool it was built in.

Can I export my animation as a Lottie?

Yes. Menu › Export Lottie… writes the flat parts of a scene, shapes, text, pictures and groups with their keyframes and curves, as a Lottie any player plays. Lottie can't carry lights, 3D, models, particles, effects or camera moves, so those are left out and listed.

Can I turn a Lottie into a 3D animation?

Yes. An imported Lottie's shapes are ordinary layers in a real 3D scene, so you can give them depth, bevels and materials such as glass or chrome, light them, and move a camera around them. Export the result as video or a live embed; the 3D can't go back into a Lottie file.

How do I convert a Lottie to MP4?

Import it, then export MP4, WebM, GIF or a PNG sequence from the scene, in any aspect ratio, or transparent WebM with the background turned off. If you only need the conversion, the free Lottie to MP4 tool does it in one step in your browser.

Can AI work with my Lottie files?

Yes. Paraplex's AI assistant can bring a Lottie in from a link, and an AI agent connected through the Paraplex MCP server, such as Claude Code, can send Lottie files into your open scene. Once a Lottie is in, the assistant edits its layers like any others, and each change waits for your Apply.

Can I put the edited animation on my website?

Yes, two ways. Export it as a Lottie and it plays in any Lottie player. Or publish the scene as a Paraplex embed, which keeps the 3D, light and camera and answers hover, click, drag and scroll.

Is the Lottie editor free?

Yes. Lottie import and export are on every plan, including Free, and the free plan exports MP4 at 1080p and 30 fps with no watermark. Pro adds exports up to 4K at 60 fps.

Coming soon: post straight to your accounts.

Not available yet. Two things are on the way for marketing teams. The first is posting finished pieces straight to your linked social accounts.

The second is a long-form YouTube workflow for 3D documentaries, educational videos and tutorials: an outline and research, a voiceover, B-roll and generated 3D scenes, edits timed to the narration with music, sound and titles, landscape and vertical renders for each platform, and titles, descriptions and hashtags written for each post. Both will be listed here when they ship.

“Every client has a brand.”

A design system per client.

Keep each client's colors, fonts, text styles, materials, scene looks and motion as its own design system in your Library, and apply it to any scene in one step. A client's kit exports as one file to share with a teammate.

“The revisions never end.”

A link for review, a step to undo.

Copy a shareable link that publishes the piece as a web page, then refresh it after each round while the address stays the same. Notes on the canvas never export, undo has no limit, and each project keeps a History of recent saves to restore.

“The volume keeps growing.”

Templates, including your own.

Start from 70+ editable templates that each say what to swap in, or save any scene as a template of your own. Data variants make one version per spreadsheet row, and on Pro, Export all variants renders them in one job.

“Every channel wants its own size.”

One scene, every format.

Add 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, 4:5 or 4:3 as artboards beside the frame, each reframed for its shape, with safe zones for TikTok, Reels, Shorts and the Instagram feed. On Pro, one export renders every enabled format.

Your own code, running live inside it.

Code layers bring HTML, CSS, JavaScript or React into a scene, flat over the frame or as a card in 3D. In an embed they keep running and respond to the pointer, so a live counter or a slice of your product's UI can sit inside the 3D scene on your site.

States

States, not just a loop.

Idle loops, presses that play once and hold, and held poses, switched by clicks, the pointer, a delay or your page.

Keyboard

Reachable without a mouse.

Every interactive layer gets a keyboard-focusable stand-in, so visitors can reach it with Tab and press it with Enter.

Calm for anyone who asks.

Visitors who ask their device for less motion see the first frame held instead of the animation.
