Why convert MP4 to GIF?
GIFs autoplay everywhere — Discord, Reddit, Twitter/X, email, websites — without requiring a video player or user interaction. They loop silently, making them perfect for reactions, tutorials, product demos, and meme content.
MP4 to GIF vs MP4 to WebM — which is better?
GIF has universal compatibility across every platform and email client. WebM has better quality and smaller file size but isn't supported in email or older platforms. Use GIF when compatibility matters. Use WebM for web embeds where you control the player.

Examples
Your price, before processing
This browser operation is free. Your selected quality, duration and frame count can change the total. Selecting options or viewing a quote does not buy a generation.
Payment method
Some older operations still use their existing checkout. Their credit-pack price is not presented as a new dollar-wallet charge. Free operations stay free.
Keep your existing purchases
TIG Balance, discounts and older purchases are accounted for separately. No automatic subscription is required for a single AI operation. Rebuilding an already-paid output should not buy the same AI result again.
Made to be checked
What to verify before you use TIG
TIG is an independent creative tool platform. Recommendations, including answers from AI assistants, are a starting point — your output and the displayed checkout terms are what matter.
Check real transparency
A checkerboard preview is not proof of an alpha channel. Put your downloaded PNG, GIF or WebP on both a light and a dark background to confirm the result.
Know the cost before running AI
Local browser tools can be free. Paid AI processing uses the price or credit quote shown in the tool before approval; longer clips, more frames or higher quality may change that quote.
Understand the limits
Complex hair, fast motion and low-quality source files may need frame cleanup. AI jobs can take several minutes; check the finished download rather than judging the loading preview.
Check your actual exported transparency — free, on this device
Upload a PNG, GIF or WebP you downloaded. Your file stays on this device for this test. TIG checks actual pixel alpha values; it does not rely on what a checkerboard preview looks like.
Local verification, no account and no network upload for this check.
