Compress animated GIFs with our free online GIF compressor. Color optimization cuts file size while every frame stays intact. Runs in your browser, no signup.
Why Compress GIF?
A GIF can only use 256 colors per frame, but how those colors are picked makes a huge difference to file size. Our GIF compressor rebuilds each frame with an optimized palette and tighter encoding, trimming wasted bytes while the animation plays exactly as before. Drop in several GIFs to compress them together and download the batch as a ZIP — processing stays local to your browser from start to finish.

GIF is a 1987-era format that stores every frame as an indexed image with no modern video compression, so even a few seconds of animation adds up quickly.
No fixed limit — since compression runs in your browser, capacity depends on your device's memory. Typical GIFs compress in seconds.
