mp4, m4v, mov, mkv, avi, webm, flv, wmv, 3gp, ts — до 50 МБ
Files are deleted right after processing — we do not store or view them.
Clip duration is capped at 15 seconds, otherwise the GIF gets too large.

This tool cuts a clip out of a video and turns it into an animated GIF. Set the start time, how many seconds to take (up to 15), the frame rate, and the width — the rest adjusts automatically while preserving the aspect ratio.

Upload a video (MP4, MOV, MKV, AVI, WebM and others), configure the clip settings, and download the finished GIF. By default it takes the first 3 seconds of the video at 10 frames per second and 480 pixels wide — enough for most chat and social media use cases.

The GIF is rendered in two passes via ffmpeg: first an optimal color palette is built for the specific clip, then the frames are re-encoded against that palette, producing noticeably cleaner animation than a single-pass render. Duration is capped at 15 seconds to keep the file a reasonable size. The file is deleted from the server immediately after processing.

Yes, via FPS (frames per second) and width. Higher values give smoother, sharper animation but a larger file.
