Fast, private and with colors that hold up.
Pick the exact moment

Better colors
Every frame gets its own 256 color palette, so scene changes and gradients look less blotchy.

Decoding and encoding run in a background worker, so the page stays responsive and you can cancel at any time.
Private by design
Your video never leaves your device. The GIF is made in your browser, with no upload, account or watermark.
