GifRun vs Kapwing

GifRun is a web tool for making GIF and WebP animations from YouTube, Vimeo, other supported video links, and uploaded videos. Its editor offers draggable text overlays, cropping, speed and frame-rate controls, filters, and output-resolution selection. Direct uploads accept MP4, MOV, and MKV files up to 200 MB. A free registered account supports clips up to 20 seconds and 600px resolution, with a watermark; anonymous use is limited to 10 seconds and 520px, also with a watermark and possible advertisements. PRO plans remove the duration cap and support output up to 2K without watermarks or ads, along with direct uploads. Pricing includes $5 a month, $50 a year, and a non-recurring $10.00 USD payment for 60 days of access. PRO subscribers can generate videos from text prompts using OpenAI Sora. Signed-in users can save creations to profiles and share image pages, while public images support likes, comments, feeds, and notifications. The maker says monthly and yearly subscriptions qualify for a full refund within 14 days.
