WebP provides better compression and quality than GIF for both static and animated images. Converting a GIF to WebP produces a smaller file that maintains the image quality without being limited to GIF's 256-colour palette. Note that this tool converts the first frame only — it does not convert GIF animations to animated WebP. Dockitt performs the conversion entirely in your browser.

How to use

  1. Click 'Choose GIF' and select the GIF image you want to convert.
  2. Click 'Convert to WebP' and wait while the image is processed.
  3. Download the WebP file.

FAQ

Does WebP support animations like GIF?

WebP does support animation, but this tool converts only the first frame of the GIF to a static WebP image. For animated WebP conversion, a dedicated tool is needed.

Why is WebP better than GIF?

WebP provides far superior compression (25–70% smaller files), supports millions of colours (vs GIF's 256), has better transparency support, and supports animation. For modern web use, WebP is preferred over GIF.

Is WebP supported in all browsers?

WebP is supported in all modern browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari (14+), and Edge. For web use, WebP is a safe and well-supported choice.

Is the conversion done in my browser or on a server?

The conversion runs entirely in your browser using the Canvas API. Your image is never uploaded to any server.
