Why we like it

Smart Adapt earns its place in the aescripts library for building screen adaptations across many sizes in a few steps with reusable lists. The mix of grouping, per-screen resize and alignment, and both auto and manual duplication covers the setup from start to finish.

What is Smart Adapt - Annual Recurring Subscription?

Smart Adapt is an extension for After Effects that helps you produce hundreds of screen adaptations in a few steps. You organize your screens into groups and subgroups, add as many screens as you need, and set how each one resizes, either by width or by height. Alignment can be set per screen, and prefix and suffix support handles naming.

Once a list is built, you can export it and import it again next time, and you can create as many lists as you want. Checkboxes on groups and subgroups let you include or exclude them from the adaptations. For generating variations, Smart Adapt offers auto duplication, which copies the closest resolution automatically, and manual duplication, which lets you assign a specific composition as the master.

Version 2.0 was released on August 31, 2025, and the extension runs on After Effects 2026 through CC 2019. It is available as an annual recurring subscription, with a monthly option as well. A demo video is available.

Frequently asked questions

Does Smart Adapt work with After Effects 2026?

Smart Adapt supports After Effects 2026, 2025, 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020, and CC 2019, so it covers a wide span of recent releases. Version 2.0 was last updated on August 31, 2025. If you run one of these versions, the extension should load without issue. For anything outside this range, check the developer's page for the latest compatibility details before installing.

Is Smart Adapt a subscription or a one-time purchase?

Smart Adapt is offered as an annual recurring subscription, and a monthly subscription is also available. In this catalog it is listed as free, so for current pricing, billing terms, and how the subscription renews, check the developer's page directly. That page will hold the most accurate and up-to-date licensing information, since subscription terms are managed on the developer's side rather than here.

Can I reuse my screen lists in Smart Adapt?

Smart Adapt lets you export the list of your screens and import it again next time, so a setup carries over between sessions. You can also create as many lists as you want. This helps when you work with a recurring set of screen sizes and don't want to rebuild the list from scratch each time. The export and import functions keep your configurations portable across projects.

How does Smart Adapt duplicate screens?

Smart Adapt includes both automatic and manual duplication of screens. Auto duplicate creates copies from the closest resolution automatically, while manual duplicate lets you assign a specific composition to be used as a master. Together these give you two ways to generate screen variations, depending on whether you want the extension to pick the source or you want to choose it yourself. Both options are part of the same screen adaptation workflow.
