A GIF is a short, silent, looping clip you can drop into a chat, a doc, or a post. Making one from a video means picking the right few seconds and converting that range. With Supercut you do it all in your browser: you type what you want in plain English, the AI plans the edit, and a deterministic engine renders the GIF on your own device. Your footage is never uploaded.
Keep it short. A few seconds is usually enough: long enough to read the moment, short enough to loop cleanly. GIFs have no sound, so pick a moment that reads on its own. A tighter clip also keeps the file size down, which matters because GIF is an old format that gets heavy fast. If your loop feels too long or too large, trim it further or crop to just the part that matters.
There is no timeline to scrub and no menus to hunt through. You describe the GIF you want, for example "turn 0:02 to 0:06 into a GIF." The AI reads your prompt plus the clip's metadata (duration, dimensions, filename) and plans the edit. A deterministic engine then maps that plan to the exact FFmpeg commands and runs them in your browser using WebAssembly. The only thing that leaves your device is the text of your prompt. The video itself stays local.
Because it is all plain English, you can stack the edit. Ask to trim to the exact range, crop to a square or vertical frame, or slow the clip down as part of the conversion. Supercut also converts the other way: it handles common formats including MP4, MOV, WebM, and GIF, so going from a GIF back to a video works too. If the result is too large to share, ask to compress it or shave a second off and render again.
Open Supercut and add your video. It loads locally in your browser with no upload, so nothing is sent to a server.
Say which moment to use, like "turn 0:02 to 0:06 into a GIF" or "make a GIF of the first 5 seconds." The AI plans the trim and the conversion for you.
Check the rendered GIF. If it runs too long or feels too big, type a follow-up like "trim it tighter," "crop it square," or "compress it," and render again.
Save the GIF to your device, ready to drop into chats, docs, or posts. The render happens on your machine, so your footage never leaves it.
Turn a video into a GIF right in your browser. Pick the clip, convert, and download, no upload, no watermark to start, your footage stays private.
Trim and cut video in your browser. Drop a clip, say where to cut, and download it, your footage never leaves your device. No upload, no watermark to start.
Crop and reframe any video to 9:16 for TikTok, Reels and Shorts. Subject-tracking keeps the action in frame, all in your browser, no upload.
Compress video to a smaller file size in your browser. Shrink clips for sharing without uploading them anywhere, your footage stays on your device.
Reframe, caption, and batch-process client clips in your browser. No uploading client footage to a third party, and no watermark on paid exports.
Reframe to 9:16, add viral captions, trim hooks, and export TikTok-ready clips in your browser. No upload before you post.
No. The conversion runs in your browser using WebAssembly, so your video never leaves your device. Only the text of your prompt is sent so the AI knows what edit to plan.
Yes. Tell Supercut the exact range, like "turn 0:02 to 0:06 into a GIF," and it converts only that section.
Supercut handles common formats including MP4, MOV, WebM, and GIF. You can also go the other way and convert a GIF back into a video.
