About Our GIF Tools

Everything you need to work with animated GIFs

The Full GIF Workflow

These six tools cover a GIF's whole life: create one from a video clip, caption it for a meme, trim it to the exact frames that matter, shrink its file size for Discord and email limits, resize its dimensions for platform rules, or convert it to video when a GIF has outgrown the format entirely. They share one frame engine underneath, so a GIF edited in one tool comes out clean enough to feed straight into the next.

Working With an Ancient Format

GIF predates modern compression by decades, which is why files get huge and why editing them well takes care. Each frame is a full image with a 256-color palette, and sloppy tools destroy animations by flattening frames or dropping timing. The tools here parse the frame structure directly, preserve per-frame delays, and re-encode with the original timing intact, all in your browser with nothing uploaded. Your reaction GIFs stay between you and your group chat.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the usual meme workflow with these tools? Capture the clip with Video to GIF, then add the caption with the GIF Text Editor, which keeps the animation intact frame by frame. If the result is too big for wherever it is headed, finish with the Compressor or Resizer.
Why are GIF files so large in the first place? GIF is a format from 1987 storing every frame as a limited-color image with no modern video compression, so even short clips balloon fast. That is also why GIF to Video exists: the same clip as WebM is typically 80 to 90 percent smaller, and most platforms now accept video where they once wanted GIF.
Are my GIFs uploaded while I edit them? No. The GIFs are parsed, edited, and re-encoded by JavaScript running in the page, frame by frame, on your own machine. Even large files never touch a server, which you can confirm by going offline after the page loads.
Is there a size limit for GIF editing? No hard cap, but every frame is held in memory while you work, so very large GIFs above roughly 50 MB can get slow on older devices. Most GIFs under 20 MB edit quickly, and trimming a long GIF first makes every later step faster.
Do these tools work on phones? Yes, including the frame-accurate ones like the Trimmer and Text Editor. Heavy re-encodes take longer on older phones since the processing is local, but the tools are built for touch and tested on iPhone.
