GIF to SVG Converter
Turn GIF files into SVG in seconds. Everything happens on your device: nothing is uploaded, and there's no limit.
Your images are processed in this browser tab and never uploaded.
Why convert GIF to SVG?
GIFs are limited to 256 colours and can be large.
A vector SVG scales to any size without blur, which is what designers, web developers and cutting machines (Cricut, laser cutters) need.
What to expect
- Animated GIFs: the first frame is converted.
- Your GIF is traced into real vector shapes, not just wrapped in an SVG. This works best for logos, icons and illustrations; photos turn into large, poster-like SVGs.

About the formats
GIF (Graphics Interchange Format, 1987) is one of the oldest web formats. It is limited to 256 colours per frame but supports simple transparency and animation, which is why it is still used for short loops and memes.
SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics, 2001) is a vector format. Instead of pixels it describes shapes, so it stays perfectly sharp at any size. It's the standard for logos and icons on the web.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert GIF to SVG?
Drop your GIF files into the box above (or tap Select files), check the options, then press Convert. Each SVG downloads on its own, or you can download them all as one ZIP file.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser on your own device. Your GIF files are never sent to a server, so they stay private, and it works even on a slow connection once the page has loaded.
Is there a limit on how many GIF files I can convert?
No. Convert as many as you like, for free, without signing up. Very large batches are processed one after another so your browser stays responsive.
Will the SVG be a real vector?
Yes. The image is traced into vector paths with colour regions, so it scales cleanly and can be edited in Illustrator, Inkscape or Figma. Choose the Detail setting to balance accuracy and file size: “Simple” works best for logos.
Does it work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. It works in Safari, Chrome, Firefox and Edge on phones, tablets and computers. Nothing to install.
