GIF to MP4 converter

Convert a GIF to MP4 right in your browser — files typically shrink dramatically and the result autoplays smoothly on every modern platform, unlike a clunky GIF. No upload, no watermark, no signup.

GIFs balloon fast — clips over 30 seconds get very large and slow to encode. Trim it shorter for a usable file.

Projected size: ≈ {{ estimatedSizeLabel }} — all frames share one color palette, which holds up better than a fresh palette per frame.

How to use this tool

  1. Drop your GIF

    Any animated .gif file — the tool shows its size before converting.

  2. Hit Convert to MP4

    Frames are decoded in your browser and re-encoded as a compact H.264 video.

  3. Preview and download

    The result plays back looping and muted, just like the GIF did — download it as MP4.

Questions people ask

Why convert GIF to MP4?

MP4 is a real video format with proper compression, so the same animation typically comes out much smaller than the GIF, looks sharper (more than 256 colors), and autoplays on every modern platform — most sites you upload a GIF to convert it to video behind the scenes anyway.

Will the MP4 loop and autoplay like the GIF did?

Yes — the preview and the file itself are set up to loop and play muted, matching how GIFs behave by default in browsers and chat apps.

Is my GIF uploaded anywhere?

No. The GIF is decoded frame by frame using your browser's built-in image decoder, and the video is encoded locally too — nothing is sent to a server at any point.

Does this work in every browser?

It needs a browser that can decode GIF frames natively (the ImageDecoder API), which Chrome and Edge support. If your browser can't, the tool tells you plainly instead of showing a button that does nothing.

Will odd-sized GIFs convert correctly?

Yes — video encoding requires even pixel dimensions, so a GIF with an odd width or height is padded by a single pixel before encoding; the difference is not visible.
