ffmpeg in-browser
The same ffmpeg used by pros — palette generation, dithering, frame rate control — runs directly in your tab.
100% private
Your video clips never leave your browser. Screen recordings, private moments — no server ever sees them.
GIF → MP4 too
Shrink bloated GIFs by converting them back to MP4. 10x smaller, same visual content, plays everywhere.
When to use GIF (and when not to)
GIF works when you need a silent looping animation that plays automatically without user interaction — in emails, Slack, Notion, GitHub issues, or anywhere that doesn't support autoplay video. Drop a GIF in and it loops forever, no controls needed.
GIF does NOT work when file size matters. GIFs are genuinely enormous compared to modern video formats. A 10-second clip that's 2 MB as MP4 becomes 25–50 MB as GIF. That kills page load speed, email clients reject large attachments, and Discord will refuse to play very large GIFs.
The smarter alternative for web use: GIF to MP4. Modern browsers autoplay muted MP4 videos in a loop — they behave exactly like GIFs but are 10–15x smaller. If you control the page HTML, serve MP4 instead of GIF. If you're posting to a platform and need GIF specifically, use our converter to get the format you need.
