How to use Extract Frames

    It opens in a player right on this page.

Perfect for thumbnails and stills

Use it to make a thumbnail from your own video, save a still from a family clip, collect reference frames for drawing or editing, or build a storyboard from a scene. Frames are saved at the video’s full resolution, so they’re as sharp as the video allows.

Keyboard shortcuts: G grabs the current frame, , and . step back and forward one frame, and Space plays or pauses.

Frequently asked questions

Is the frame grabber free?

Yes, completely free. There is no sign-up, no watermark, no daily limit and no premium plan.

Is my video uploaded?

No. GrabKit processes your file with code that runs inside your own browser. The file is never sent to a server, so nobody (including us) can see it. You can even disconnect from the internet after the page loads and the tool keeps working.

PNG or JPG: which should I choose?

PNG keeps every pixel exactly but makes bigger files. JPG is much smaller and looks almost identical for photos and video frames.

Why is my frame a little blurry?

Fast motion is blurred in the video itself. Step a few frames forward or back to find a sharper one.

Can I extract every frame?

You can auto-extract up to 300 frames at a time. That’s enough for a smooth sequence without running out of memory.
