Video Frame Extractor

Our tool uses your browser's built-in HTML5 video capabilities to process your video file entirely on your device. When you upload a video, it's loaded into a hidden video element, and we use the Canvas API to capture a single frame at the exact timestamp you need—either at the very beginning (first frame) or at the end (last frame) of the video.

The entire process happens client-side, meaning your video file never leaves your computer or gets uploaded to any server. This ensures maximum privacy and speed, as there's no network transfer involved. The extracted frame is then converted to a high-quality PNG image that you can download instantly.

We support all video formats that your web browser can natively play, which includes the most common formats like MP4 (H.264), WebM, MOV (QuickTime), AVI, and OGG. The exact list of supported formats depends on your browser, but modern browsers like Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge support a wide range of video codecs and containers.

If you're unsure whether your video format is supported, simply try uploading it—if your browser can play the video, we can extract frames from it. For the best compatibility, we recommend using MP4 files with H.264 encoding, as this is universally supported across all modern browsers and platforms.

Absolutely! Your privacy is our top priority. All video processing happens entirely within your web browser using JavaScript and HTML5 technologies. Your video file never leaves your device, is never uploaded to our servers or any third-party service, and we have no way to access, view, or store your content. You can even use this tool completely offline once the page has loaded.

This client-side approach means you have complete control over your data. Whether you're working with sensitive business content, personal videos, or confidential material, you can use our tool with confidence knowing that your files remain 100% private and secure on your own computer.

Yes! Our tool is specifically designed to work seamlessly with AI video generation platforms like Wan, Veo, Kling, Sora, and other image-to-video or video extension models. Extracting the last frame of a video is particularly useful when you want to extend a video clip, as you can use that final frame as the starting point for generating new content that flows naturally from your original footage.

Similarly, extracting the first frame is perfect for analyzing how your video begins, creating thumbnails, or preparing reference images for AI workflows. The frames are exported as high-quality PNG files that maintain the original video resolution, ensuring they work perfectly with any AI model that accepts image inputs.

Since all processing happens in your browser, the main limitation is your device's available memory (RAM). Most modern computers and devices can easily handle videos up to several gigabytes in size. However, very large files (10GB+) or extremely long videos (multiple hours) might cause performance issues depending on your device's capabilities and available memory.

The good news is that frame extraction is a lightweight operation—we only need to load and capture a single frame, not process the entire video. This means even longer videos can typically be handled quickly. If you encounter any issues with very large files, try using a shorter clip or a video with a lower resolution, or ensure other browser tabs and applications are closed to free up memory.
