About
Jagged or pixelated edges can make an otherwise great GIF look unpolished. This tool analyzes the boundaries in each frame and smooths them out, giving your animation a cleaner, more professional appearance. It is especially useful after cropping, background removal, or any edit that leaves visible artifacts along the edges.
Features
Automatically detects and smooths rough edges across every frame of your animation
Adjustable intensity so you can find the right balance between sharpness and smoothness
Preserves the original animation timing and frame count — only the edges change
Runs entirely in your browser, so your files stay private the whole time
Guide
Drop your GIF into the upload area or browse to select it from your device
Adjust the edge refinement strength — higher values smooth more aggressively
Check the live preview to make sure the edges look natural without losing detail
Once you are happy with how it looks, hit download to save the refined GIF
Pro Tips
Start with a low refinement strength and increase gradually — over-smoothing can blur fine details
This works best on GIFs that were recently cropped or had their background removed
If edges still look rough after one pass, try combining this with the feather edges tool for an even softer result
