GIF export is a still frame (first frame of an animated GIF). No extra library is used.

Convert GIF to WebP without uploading

Classic GIFs are convenient but heavy. A still GIF saved as WebP is usually much smaller and still works in every modern browser.

This tool reads the GIF in your browser and exports the visible frame as WebP (animated GIFs become a still first frame). Use it for stickers, UI bits, and simple graphics.

Drop several GIFs, convert them together, and download WebP files or a ZIP. You can also switch output to PNG or JPG from the same screen.
