GifCraft vs Purupuru Maker

GifCraft is a browser-based tool for creating and editing looping GIFs from videos, image sequences or AI-generated images. It can trim, caption, filter, resize, crop, rotate, change playback speed, adjust looping and compress media. Supported inputs include MP4, MOV, WebM, M4V, GIF, PNG, JPG, WebP and AVIF; exports include GIF, H.264 MP4, animated WebP and PNG frames. GIF exports can contain up to 240 frames, use 2–256 colours and include optional dithering. Presets cover Discord emoji at 256 KB, Slack emoji at 128 KB, X at 15 MB and Instagram MP4; MP4 exports are also described for TikTok and WhatsApp. GifCraft says files are edited and encoded in the browser, and uploaded files are not sent to its servers. AI prompts are sent to the image model, and the generator allows a few images per hour. The free service works on web, Android and iOS, needs no account, adds no watermark and has no export limit. Very long 4K clips may be slow on older phones.

Purupuru Maker turns selected areas of still images into looping motion for GIFs or browser-made video. Its web editor accepts PNG, JPEG, and WebP files: paint a mask over the area to animate, preview the effect, then export. Motion presets include Jelly, Sway, Bounce, Wave, Pulse, and Quake, with controls for speed, amplitude, damping, and gravity. Batch mode applies one preset and its tuning controls to a group of images. Processing happens in the browser, so the source image, mask, preview, and export are not sent to a Purupuru Maker application server. The site says it keeps no account library copy; closing the tab ends the session unless an export was downloaded. GIFs have no added logo or watermark. MP4 export depends on a compatible browser recorder, while WebM works in many modern browsers. The editor supports phones, mouse, stylus, and finger input, and a Chrome extension can open the studio or send an image URL.
