GIF to AVIF Converter

While GIFs are excellent for short animations and simple graphics, converting them to AVIF offers significant advantages, especially for static images:

• Superior Compression: AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) offers significantly better compression than GIF (and even JPEG/PNG), resulting in much smaller file sizes for comparable quality. This is ideal for web optimization.
• Higher Quality: AVIF supports a wider color gamut (HDR) and higher bit depths, allowing for richer, more vibrant images with fewer artifacts, even at lower file sizes.
• Transparency Support: Like PNG, AVIF fully supports alpha channel transparency, making it suitable for images with transparent backgrounds.
• Extract Specific Frames: Easily grab a single, high-quality frame from an animated GIF for use as a static, optimized image.
• Future-Proofing: AVIF is a modern, royalty-free format backed by major tech companies, making it a strong candidate for the future of web images.

1. Upload GIF Files: Drag and drop your GIF images, or click to select files. The necessary modules will load dynamically.
2. Select Frame (for animated GIFs): Use the slider or input field to choose the specific frame you wish to convert. The preview will update.
3. Adjust Settings (Optional):
   • **AVIF Compression:** Choose between lossless or lossy compression. If lossy, set the quality (0-100%) and encoding effort (0-10).
   • **Transparency:** Choose whether to preserve transparency or flatten it with a background color.
   • **Resize:** If needed, enable resizing and set new dimensions or a percentage.
   • **Naming:** Add a prefix or suffix for the output filenames.
4. Convert: Click the "Convert Selected Frame to AVIF" button.
5. Download: Download your converted AVIF files.
