Established in February 2013 by Alex Chung and Jace Cooke, Giphy is a widely recognized online platform and search engine specializing in the creation, distribution, and discovery of brief looping videos, or GIFs. Initially functioning as a search engine for GIFs, Giphy evolved to enable users to upload and disseminate GIFs across social media networks such as Facebook[1]. Despite confronting legal hurdles concerning privacy and market rivalry, Giphy has sustained its growth, with over 200 million daily users attesting to its popularity. Giphy, which was eventually bought by Facebook Inc., now known as Meta Platforms, has secured substantial funding over the years. The platform also actively collaborates with brands for marketing campaigns and has undertaken joint ventures with organizations like Universal Studios and Line. Giphy’s influence is evident in the media coverage it receives, with numerous publications documenting its progress.
Giphy (/ˈɡɪfi/ GHIF-ee), styled as GIPHY, is an American online database and search engine that allows users to search for and share animated GIF files.
