A quick way to manage comps that already exist in your project:
By default, comps are named using the pattern {preset}_{index}, which gives you names like "Instagram_Square_001". But you can build whatever pattern you want.
{preset} — The preset name{index} — Auto-incrementing number{amount} — Total quantity in the batchClientName_{preset}_{index}2026_Campaign_{index}_{preset}{preset}_Final_{index}Batch{amount}_{preset}_{index}Changed your mind about a format? Swap a preset in your queue without losing the quantity or other settings.

v1.0
Got an idea? Send it over. Real feedback from real users shapes every update.
I built COMP-O-RAMA because I was spending more time setting up comps than actually animating. Clicking through the same dialog 50 times a day is nobody's idea of creative work. This tool exists so you can skip the busywork and get to the part you actually enjoy. Hope it saves you as much time as it saves me.
