About Pillow Lottie

Pillow Lottie is a free, privacy-first, browser-based editor for Lottie animation files. It is designed for designers, motion designers, and developers who need to edit, preview, validate, optimize, and export Lottie animations without After Effects.

§ 1

Principles

  • Privacy by design. Every parse, render, edit, optimization, and export happens inside the browser. No backend, no accounts, no cloud processing.
  • Honest reporting. Compatibility, optimization, and speed-ramp wording never claims perfect platform parity.
  • Preserve your data. Unsupported Lottie fields survive editing and export. Internal markers are stripped on export.
  • Free and accessible. No account, no signup, no subscription. Open the editor and start working.

§ 2

Technology

Pillow Lottie is built with React 19, TypeScript, Vite, and Tailwind CSS. Animation playback uses lottie-web. File processing (compatibility analysis and optimization) runs in a Web Worker off the main thread. All processing is client-side.
