The Problem
Adding GIFs to video shouldn't be this painful.
If you've ever alt-tabbed to a browser just to find a reaction GIF, you know the struggle.
🔁
Alt-Tabbing to the Browser
Every time you need a GIF, you leave Premiere, open a browser, search Giphy, download the file, switch back, and import it. It kills your flow.
✓ Gifer: Search and insert without leaving Premiere
📥
Download, Import, Repeat
You download a .gif file, import it into your project, drag it onto the timeline, realize it's the wrong one, and start over. Time wasted.
✓ Gifer: One-click insert directly to timeline
📐
Wrong Sizes and Frame Rates
GIFs come in random sizes and frame rates. You spend time scaling, repositioning, and adjusting speed every single time.
✓ Gifer: Auto-sizes to match your sequence

FAQ
Common Questions
Everything you need to know about Gifer.
Gifer downloads the GIF in the background, converts it to a format your editor can read, imports it into your project, and places it on your timeline at the current playhead position. Works in After Effects, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, and Final Cut Pro.
Gifer supports standard GIF format as well as WebP and MP4 variants provided by Giphy and Tenor. All formats are auto-converted to a timeline-friendly format during import.
Gifer requires an internet connection to search and download GIFs from Giphy and Tenor. However, your favorited GIFs are cached locally, so previously used GIFs may be available offline.
Gifer sources GIFs from both Giphy and Tenor, giving you access to millions of GIFs. Both libraries are searched simultaneously so you always get the best results.
Yes, completely. Gifer is free with no subscription and no payment. Download Filmit Studio (also free), install Gifer in one click, add your own free GIPHY key, and you're set. A Studio subscription unlocks our pro tools, but Gifer itself costs nothing.
