About GIF to PSB Conversion

GIF (introduced 1987) and PSB are both image formats, but they differ in important ways. GIF supports animation and 256-colour palettes, widely used for short animated clips and simple graphics. PSB is a widely used file format.

CocoConvert's converter handles the entire pipeline server-side using FFmpeg, Sharp, and qpdf — battle-tested libraries used by streaming platforms and enterprise tools. Files are encrypted in transit and deleted within 24 hours.
