Convert GIF to WebP Online
GIF is an old format limited to 256 colours, best known for short animations. For an animated GIF, the first frame is converted. Upload your GIF files, click "Convert" and download them as WebP. WebP gives much smaller files than JPG and PNG at the same quality and supports transparency, so websites load faster.
Transparency is kept in the WebP image. The gear button next to each file opens its settings: quality. The conversion runs in your browser, so your files are never uploaded.
