Jitter is the quickest route from a static design to moving type. It runs in a browser, imports from Figma, and ships with templates that include typographic pieces such as a stretched type repeater, so designers can animate headlines and social posts without learning a compositor. Every plan exports video, GIF and Lottie, which matters for product teams that hand animations to developers. The free plan includes unlimited drafts and 3 workspace files but caps export at 720p and 30fps. Pro costs $15 per editor per month billed annually and adds unlimited files, 1080p 60fps, ProRes and WebM. Max at $35 adds Brand Kits, transparent export, frame-by-frame export and 4K at 120fps, and Ultra at $59 is aimed at heavy AI use. Jitter says over 20,000 creative teams use it. It is less suited to long, character-level kinetic typography, where After Effects, Cavalry or Fusion give finer control.
