After Effects Converter

Converts After Effects animations to JSON-based formats suitable for web and mobile delivery. The tool accepts AE project exports or JSON payloads and outputs a target JSON representation compatible with motion libraries such as Lottie or Bodymovin. It preserves essential properties like transform, opacity, shape data, and timing, while abstracting incompatible effects into safe, runtime-friendly equivalents.
Conceptual workflow: the tool parses input data, maps each AE layer to a corresponding JSON schema, samples keyframes at a configurable rate, and applies optimizations to flatten redundant curves. It includes feature detection and nonfatal fallbacks for unsupported effects, such as 3D or expressions, to maintain predictable playback across platforms. Outputs can be minified to reduce payload size and made verbose for debugging.
Who benefits: developers embedding animations in websites and apps, motion designers prototyping pipelines, and agencies seeking a consistent export path. The tool supports batch processing for large projects and provides deterministic results across runs to reduce verification time. It also aids teams migrating from proprietary AE workflows to web-friendly formats without losing critical motion intent.
Unique value and core features: fidelity controls, batch conversions, per layer diagnostics, and minified outputs. It offers selectable fidelity presets, shape simplification, and color quantization to balance quality and payload. It integrates with build pipelines and provides diagnostics with actionable warnings about differences from the source. Use cases include web animations, app UI micro-interactions, and game asset pipelines where JSON-based runtimes are favored.
