Convert VIDEO to GIF for social media uploads
Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn — each platform has rules. Video to GIF matches them. Browser-based, free, no signup, runs entirely on your device.
VIDEO and GIF both have their place — but when you need one and you've got the other, Video to GIF is the cleanest way to convert between them in your browser.
Launch the tool: Video to GIF — Runs entirely on your device using open web standards.
For social media
Each social platform has its own recompression pipeline — your GIF will be re-encoded once on upload. The trick is to give the platform a clean, already-optimised input so it has less reason to over-compress. Video to GIF's social presets do this.
