What Is Animated WebP?

Animated WebP is a motion image based on the WebP format. It supports transparency and infinite looping, with noticeably better compression than GIF.

This tool encodes everything locally in your browser via FFmpeg WebAssembly — no need to upload your video.

How to Use

Convert in three steps:

  • Upload a video (MP4, WebM, MOV, AVI, etc.).
  • Set the frame rate, quality, and output width; enable lossless compression if needed.
  • Click Convert, then download your animated WebP.

Tips

  • A frame rate of 15 and quality of 80 strike a good balance between size and smoothness.
  • Short clips at lower resolutions convert faster and produce smaller files.
  • Use lossless mode when you need a transparent background (requires a source video with transparency).

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between animated WebP and GIF?+
At the same visual quality, an animated WebP is usually only 30%-50% of a GIF's size, supports 16 million colors, and compresses better — though some older platforms don't support it.
What is the difference between lossless and lossy?+
Lossless compression keeps full quality but produces larger files; lossy compression slightly reduces quality for much smaller files, which suits photo-like content.
Will the generated WebP loop automatically?+
Yes. The converted animated WebP loops infinitely by default.
How long does the conversion take?+
The first run downloads the ~30MB FFmpeg engine (cached afterwards); then conversion speed depends on the video's length and resolution.
