Compress a GIF to 10 MB

A GIF over 10 MB is usually a long or high-resolution clip. It is cleaned up, then compressed, and made smaller in pixels only as far as 10 MB needs.

Getting a GIF under 10 MB

Many large GIFs are bigger than they need to be: GIF makers often store each frame in full when only part of the picture changed. The first step rewrites each frame as only what changed, which changes nothing you can see and is sometimes enough on its own.

If not, gentle lossy compression follows, still at full size and with every frame. Fewer pixels or dropped frames come only after that, and only if 10 MB needs them.

Tips

  • The original is deleted minutes after compression, and the result shortly after, so download it straight away.
  • Upload limits apply to the file you upload, so check the size shown on the result before you post it.
  • For a GIF far over 10 MB, like 50 MB or more, a shorter clip will keep more quality than squeezing the whole one.

How it works

  1. 1

    Drop your file

    A PDF or an image. It goes over an encrypted connection and nowhere else.

  2. 2

    Pick your limit

    Choose the size the form asks for. We start with a cleanup that changes nothing you can see.

  3. 3

    Download it

    If it needs more, we find the gentlest quality setting that still fits, and delete everything soon after.

Questions

Is it free?

Yes. There is no sign-up and no watermark.

What happens to my file?

It is processed on our server and deleted automatically: the original 5 minutes after the run finishes, the compressed file after 10. A file you upload but never compress is deleted within 30 minutes. You can also delete everything right away with Delete now.

Will it look worse?

We try a lossless cleanup first, which does not change how the file looks. Only if that is not enough do we lower image quality, and we pick the gentlest setting that still fits your size.

What if my file cannot get that small?

You get the smallest version we could make and a clear note saying so, instead of a file that silently misses the limit.

Why does the size page aim a little under its limit?

Some sites count a kilobyte as 1000 bytes and others as 1024. We aim under the stricter one, so a 200 KB page aims for 200,000 bytes and the file passes either way.
