About What the GIF
What the GIF is a free video-to-GIF converter that processes everything locally in your browser without uploading any files. Built by creatives who work with pitch decks, it enables frame-perfect trimming and editing of videos and photos into animated GIFs optimized for presentations, email, and social media.
The tool supports converting MP4, MOV, AVI, WebM, MKV, FLV, WMV, 3GP, OGV formats, as well as editing existing GIFs and exporting to APNG or silent MP4 formats. It includes features like per-clip speed control from 0.25x to 4x, boomerang bounce effects, caption overlays, cropping, filtering, and compression optimization.
Designed specifically for professionals who embed media in presentations, What the GIF eliminates the security and reliability issues of embedded videos by providing a local, frame-accurate conversion tool that works offline and passes corporate IT reviews since nothing is uploaded.
