Good to know

The GIF to WebP converter converts static and animated GIF files into WebP directly in your browser — animations are preserved as animated WebP. A lossless mode and a lossy mode for smaller files are available, each with a quality slider.

Typical searches include convert GIF to WebP, compress animated GIF, and optimize GIF for website. Multiple results can be downloaded together as a ZIP. Metadata and non-visual GIF extensions are not carried over; for animations, also check duration, loop, colors, and file size.

Typical use cases

Compress animated GIFs for faster websites

Convert animated GIFs to lossy WebP mode to significantly reduce file size at similar animation quality.

Losslessly save a static GIF to WebP

Use lossless mode for a static GIF when every pixel must be preserved exactly.

Tips for better results

Check the animation after conversion

Check the runtime, loop behavior, colors, and file size of the WebP result, especially for complex animations.

Account for metadata loss

Metadata and non-visual GIF extensions are lost during conversion — relevant if such additional data was used in the original.
