Add Time earns its place in the aescripts library as a focused timing utility, handling both adding and subtracting time with per-layer controls like ignoring locked layers.
Add Time is an After Effects script that injects time into a project at any level. It moves keyframes, adjusts comp durations, and extends layer endpoints, and it can subtract time as well as add it.
To keep the two operations distinct, Add Time markers are shown in green and Subtract Time markers in red. A toggle lets you ignore locked layers, and there is functionality to ignore guide layers. You can switch between working in frames and in time, and the interface is text-based rather than image-based.
Version 1.1.1 supports After Effects 2026, 2025, 2024, 2023, and 2022. The current release fixed several bugs around subtracting time, including comps whose inPoints were modified incorrectly and comps removed during the operation that were still being adjusted recursively, and it repaired the ignore guide layer and ignore locked layer functionality that was previously broken. A demo video is available.
Add Time is best for after Effects artists who need to adjust project timing by moving keyframes, changing comp durations, and extending layer endpoints.
Add Time is completely free to download and use.
Add Time lists compatibility with After Effects 2026, 2025, 2024, 2023, and 2022, so the 2024 release is covered. Version 1.1.1 is the current build, last updated on January 29, 2026. If you're running a version inside that range, the script should load. For anything outside the listed range, check the developer's page on aescripts to confirm before installing, since supported versions can change between updates.
Add Time handles both directions: alongside adding time, it can subtract time from a project. To keep the two operations clear, Add Time markers are shown in green and Subtract Time markers in red. Recent fixes addressed issues with subtracting time, including comps whose inPoints were modified incorrectly and comps removed during the operation that were still being adjusted recursively. There is also a UI update for when time goes from positive to negative.
Add Time includes a toggle to ignore locked layers, so they can be left out when time is added or subtracted. The current version also repaired the ignore guide layer and ignore locked layer functionality, which was previously broken. On top of that, you can switch between working in frames and in time, and the interface is text-based rather than image-based. These options give you control over which layers are affected and how timing is entered.
Add Time is listed as free here in our catalog. Beyond that, we don't have specific licensing terms to share, so for current details, including any usage conditions, check the developer's page on aescripts. The script is developed by Akimbo Studio, and the listed build is version 1.1.1, last updated January 29, 2026. A demo video is available as well if you want to look before installing.
