Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost?

Universal PDF requires a Pro subscription. One subscription unlocks every tool on the site, cancel anytime.

Does the WebP stay animated?

Yes. Animated GIFs convert to animated WebP with frames, timing and looping preserved. Static GIFs simply convert to a static WebP image.

How much smaller is WebP than GIF?

Animated WebP typically comes out 50–90% smaller than the source GIF, because WebP uses modern full-color compression instead of GIF's 256-color LZW scheme from the late 1980s.

Where does animated WebP work?

Every modern browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) displays animated WebP natively in a plain img tag. Some older chat apps and email clients still expect GIF, so keep the original if you need maximum compatibility there.
