GIF Compressor — Reduce Animated GIF Size

Compress an animated GIF by reducing its palette. Preserve animation timing, compare actual file sizes and preview the result.

Up to 10MB. Files are uploaded for server processing. Free daily limits apply.

Compare the result. Some GIFs are already optimized and may not become smaller.

Reduce the color palette

Start with 128 colors and compare the animation with your original. Simple graphics often tolerate fewer colors; photographs and smooth gradients can show banding. Choose a larger palette when color detail matters.

Check the actual saving

Already optimized GIFs may not become smaller. The result shows both original and output sizes so you can decide whether to keep it. For a larger reduction, resize the animation first, then compare a smaller palette.

Keep the animation

Frame timing and looping are retained. The tool does not promise lossless palette reduction or a fixed percentage saving. It accepts a maximum 10MB, 200 frames and 40 million pixels across the animation.
