Why animated WebP instead of GIF?
Animated WebP is the modern replacement for GIF. It supports 24-bit color (16.7 million colors vs GIF's 256), alpha transparency, and both lossy and lossless compression. WebP animations are typically 25-34% smaller than equivalent GIFs at the same visual quality. All modern browsers support animated WebP, including Chrome, Firefox, Safari 14+, and Edge.
This converter uses Lanczos scaling for sharp downsampling and the libwebp encoder for optimal compression. The quality slider lets you balance file size and visual fidelity for your specific use case.
Supported formats
Input: MP4 (H.264/H.265), WebM (VP8/VP9), MOV (QuickTime), AVI. Output: Animated WebP. Works with videos from phones, screen recorders (OBS, Loom, ScreenPal), cameras, and downloaded clips. Compatible with Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge.
Use cases for animated WebP
Animated WebP is ideal for web pages where file size matters. Product demos, hero animations, UI motion showcases, and social media content. Unlike GIF, WebP supports full color, so screen recordings and photographic content look crisp. Use it for lightweight animations on websites, messaging apps, documentation, and presentations.
