Animated GIFs are notoriously inefficient, often consuming 10MB to 50MB for short animations. Our GIF tools generate adaptive 256-color palettes with Floyd-Steinberg dithering to drastically reduce GIF file sizes, or convert animations into modern H.264 MP4 videos that load instantly on mobile networks.
