In their own words
StudioUI AI GIF Generator
StudioUI AI GIF Generator is a WordPress plugin and web-accessible, self-hosted toolkit for putting image, video, GIF, music, and conversational AI tools on a site’s own pages. Its GIF studio creates animated, loopable GIFs for memes, reactions, and stickers, rendering them server-side. Text prompts can be enhanced automatically: the built-in enhancer turns rough ideas into model-ready prompts and can use a reference image. Prompt-to-GIF generation is supported, while image-to-GIF conversion is not. Pro users can supply API keys for providers including OpenAI, FLUX/BFL, fal.ai, Groq, Mistral, and DeepSeek, or connect local or LAN ComfyUI and LM Studio. WooCommerce handles credit sales, with Stripe checkout also listed, and membership integrations include MemberPress and PMP through a tier filter. Hosted generation includes moderation for safe-for-work use. The free hosted plan costs nothing. Pro costs $149 a year. Credit packs cost $5 a month, $20 a month, or $50 a month.
