Compress GIF — Free, Fast & Private
GIF files are often surprisingly large because the format uses lossless compression that is not very efficient for photographs. A simple GIF image can easily be 500KB-2MB when the same image as JPG would be 50-200KB.
MiniPx compresses GIF images by converting them to more efficient formats — JPG for photographs and solid backgrounds, WebP for the best size-to-quality ratio, or PNG when you need to preserve transparency.
This works best for static GIF images (single frame). Animated GIFs are converted to a still image taken from the first frame — MiniPx detects the frame count as you add the file and says so before you download, because the size saving on a flattened animation looks dramatic but is mostly the discarded frames. To keep the animation, use a dedicated animated GIF optimiser such as gifsicle or ezgif.
Common use cases include reducing GIF images for email signatures, compressing GIF screenshots, and converting GIF graphics to web-optimized formats. The file size reduction is typically 70-90% when converting to JPG.
