About this tool
WebM can provide smoother playback and better compression than GIF for web pages, documentation, and embedded animations.
The output uses VP9 constant-quality encoding at CRF 32. GIF has no audio, so the WebM intentionally contains no audio track.
Processing time depends on duration, source bitrate, output format, and device performance.
Frequently asked questions
Will WebM always be smaller than GIF?
Often, especially for longer or photographic animations, but size depends on dimensions, frame count, motion, colors, and source optimization.
Is my GIF file uploaded?
No. FFmpeg WebAssembly performs the conversion in your browser. The engine downloads from a CDN, but your media stays on your device.
What is the maximum file size?
The browser converter accepts files up to 200 MB. Long files may require substantial device memory.
