The GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) is an image format that supports animation by storing a sequence of frames in a single file. This tool automates the process of extracting those frames from a video and encoding them into the GIF format.

What video formats are supported?

The tool supports most common video formats, including MP4, AVI, MOV, and WebM.

Can I control the quality and file size?

The tool automatically optimizes the GIF for a good balance of quality and file size. More advanced options for frame rate and color reduction may be added in the future.

How long can my GIF be?

For best results and reasonable file sizes, it's recommended to keep your clips under 10 seconds.

All video processing happens locally in your browser. No files are uploaded to our servers.
