Where SVG to Lottie fits

SVG to Lottie generates a conversion plan for translating SVG geometry into Lottie shape layers.

Conversion plan

The plan inventories SVG dimensions and elements, then outlines how paths and supported shapes would become Lottie shape layers.

Boundary

It does not emit real Lottie JSON yet. Filters, masks, CSS cascade, and complex SVG features require a dedicated translator and renderer validation.

Conversion is a translation between formats: SVG to Lottie preserves what the target format can represent and previews it before export.
A source document translated into a target document through format rules, illustrating how SVG to Lottie converts locally without a server round-trip.

How the conversion works

SVG to Lottie parses the input in your browser, applies the target format's rules, and produces standards-based output without a server round-trip. The page shows the result before you commit to it.

What to expect from the output

Formats have different capabilities, so conversion is a translation rather than a perfect copy. Check dimensions, colors, and any interactive features in the preview, since those are the areas where formats differ most.

Getting the best results

Clean input produces clean output. Start from the simplest version of the source that still renders correctly, keep explicit dimensions or a viewBox, and test the result where it will actually ship.

Privacy

Conversion runs locally in your browser. SVG to Lottie never uploads your content to a server, which also makes it safe for confidential assets.

How to use

  1. Paste SVG. Paste SVG markup.
  2. Generate plan. Review element counts, shape-layer steps, and unsupported features.
  3. Build converter. Use the plan to implement a real Lottie exporter.

Frequently asked questions

Does it produce a .json file now?
No. It produces the implementation plan for SVG-to-Lottie conversion.
What is the main hard part?
Mapping SVG geometry, styles, and transforms into Bodymovin-compatible shape layers.
Can every SVG become Lottie?
No. Some SVG features need raster fallback or manual redesign.
Is SVG to Lottie free?
Yes. SVGKit tools are free to use with no account required.
Does SVG to Lottie upload my files?
No. The tool runs entirely in your browser, so your files never leave your device.
What input does SVG to Lottie accept?
The supported formats are listed on the input control above; the tool validates input and reports a clear error for anything it cannot parse.
Is the output production-ready?
Yes, the output is standards-based markup. Preview it at the sizes where it will ship before replacing a production asset.
Why does the output differ slightly from the input?
Formats support different features, and conversion preserves what the target format can represent. Differences concentrate in gradients, filters, and interactive features.
