Drop a clip and it is converted to a looping GIF on your device — never sent to a server.

Turn a video clip into a GIF in your browser. Perfect for bug reports, documentation, memes, and anywhere autoplay-without-sound beats a video player. GhostVideo converts the clip to an optimized GIF on your device — no upload, no watermark, no account. GIFs get big fast, so trim to the moment you need first (same studio, one click away) and the converter does the rest.
Drop your video
Drag in the clip. It opens in the GhostVideo studio with Video → GIF pre-selected.
It converts locally
ffmpeg renders the frames and assembles an optimized GIF in your browser — nothing is sent anywhere.
Download the GIF
Save it and drop it into your issue tracker, doc, or chat — it plays everywhere, automatically.
Is my video uploaded?
No — the conversion runs in your browser with WebAssembly ffmpeg.
Why is my GIF so large?
GIF is a 1987 format — it stores every frame as an indexed image. Keep clips short, and consider trimming and compressing the source first; both live in the same studio.
How long can the clip be?
Technically minutes; practically, GIFs work best under ~15 seconds. For anything longer, a compressed MP4 is smaller and sharper.
Does the GIF have sound?
No — GIFs are silent by design. That's often the point: autoplay in places where video with audio would be blocked or rude.
Will it loop?
Yes — the GIF loops continuously, the standard behavior everywhere GIFs are shown.
Every GhostVideo tool runs entirely in your browser. Your file is never uploaded — there's no upload endpoint to send it to.
