Keep the subject moving
Process the animation across its frames instead of cutting out a single still image. Preview the movement before downloading.

Remove Background from GIF
A transparent background is selected. Choose your export format and check the credit estimate before processing.
*1. Upload your GIF
Transparent background
Keep your subject on a transparent background. Use WebM for the web, ProRes for editing, or GIF for short animations.
GIF export is selected by default. Choose WebM for smoother transparent edges. GIF files have no audio.
Why use our GIF background remover?
Editing a GIF manually can mean extracting frames, masking each one and assembling the animation again. Upload the animation and let AI handle the initial separation.
Download a transparent GIF
GIF output is selected by default for stickers, reactions and short loops. Use the original download in an app that supports GIF transparency.
Choose WebM for softer edges
If GIF color limits or hard transparent edges are unsuitable, choose WebM VP9 or another available alpha-compatible video format.
No animation-editing skills required to start
Upload your file, choose the output format and check the estimate. You do not need to build a timeline or draw the initial cutout by hand.
Skip manual frame extraction
AI handles the initial separation across the animation. You can avoid the repeated export, mask and reassemble steps of a manual GIF workflow.
Use available sign-in credits
Eligible users may receive daily credits. Check the account balance and expiry before processing your animation.
Upload a GIF or make one from video
The workspace accepts MP4, MOV, WebM, M4V and GIF. Keep GIF selected to turn a suitable video clip into an animated cutout too.
Credits count one animation cycle
A GIF that loops forever is measured by a single animation cycle. The rate remains 3 credits per second, with fractional totals rounded up.
Check the result in its destination app
Inspect the motion and edges, then test the GIF where you will use it. Some apps flatten transparent pixels when they import or convert the file.
FAQ
GIF background removal: common questions
Answers about animation, looping, transparent edges and choosing GIF or video output.
Will the result still be animated?
Yes. This workflow processes a moving GIF across its frames. Download the generated animation and check its movement and edges before using it.
Can I upload a video and export a GIF?
Yes. The uploader accepts MP4, MOV, WebM, M4V and GIF. Leave GIF selected as the output to create an animated cutout from a suitable clip.
Does an endlessly looping GIF use endless credits?
No. The duration is measured over one animation cycle, without multiplying by its repeat count. At 3 credits per second, a 5-second cycle uses 15 credits.
When should I choose WebM instead of GIF?
GIF has a limited palette and only fully transparent or opaque pixels. WebM VP9 can preserve softer transparency around hair and edges in compatible apps. Choose the format your destination supports.
Why does the GIF appear on white or black in another app?
The app may show transparency against a solid canvas, or flatten it during conversion. Check the original download over a colored layer in an app that supports GIF transparency.
Will it remove the background perfectly from every frame?
Complex motion, blur and low contrast can make edges harder to separate. Preview the full cycle. If you need precise manual fixes or more subtle edges, finish in an editor or choose an alpha-compatible video format.
Does GIF output include sound?
No. GIF files have no audio. The background remover also has no audio toggle; if you need sound, choose a video output and check the downloaded result.
Can I use daily credits for GIF removal?
Eligible users may receive credits when signing in each day. GIF removal uses the same 3 credits per input second as video removal. Review your available balance and the estimate before submitting.
