Convert SVG to GIF

Up to 3 files at once, 100 with Pro. Mixed formats are fine.

SVG to GIF conversion is not running yet. This page describes what it will do; the SVG conversions that work today are linked at the bottom.

What SVG and GIF are for

Vector graphics as XML. Sharp at any size, and the only image format you can edit in a text editor.

Limited to 256 colours, but the only image format everything animates. Large files for video-like content.

How to convert SVG to GIF

  1. Drop your SVG file onto this page, or click to pick one.
  2. Choose GIF as the target. The conversion runs inside your browser — the file is never uploaded.
  3. Download the finished GIF file.

SVG to GIF: common questions

Are my SVG files uploaded anywhere?
No. This conversion runs entirely inside your browser, so the file never leaves your device. You can confirm it yourself: open the network tab of your browser's developer tools and watch that nothing is sent while the file converts.
Is converting SVG to GIF free?
Yes, without a limit on how many files you convert and with no watermark on the result. Files up to 100 MB are covered by the free plan.
Does converting SVG to GIF lose quality?
SVG and GIF describe content in fundamentally different ways, so the conversion is a reconstruction rather than a copy. The result is faithful, but not byte-for-byte equivalent. Text is rendered with the fonts embedded in the file; anything else falls back.
Do I need to install anything to open GIF files?
No installation is needed for the conversion itself — it runs in the browser you already have. Opening the GIF afterwards needs whatever software normally handles Graphics Interchange Format on your device.
