It’s not trivial to produce a Lottie file in After Effects. 95% of the app’s features are off limits, so it’s practically impossible to take an existing AE project and convert it.

Instead you have to ask an artist to author a project from scratch within Lottie’s limitations, but of course there’s no feedback within AE itself if you’re overstepping the boundaries, so they have to be particularly careful.

I wouldn’t recommend it based on my personal experience. But I guess there are teams who have the diligence to make it work.
