Giphy is a renowned online platform and motor de busca[2] dedicated to creating, sharing, and discovering short looping videos known as GIFs. The platform was co-founded by Alex Chung and Jace Cooke in February 2013. Initially, it acted as a GIF[6] search engine, but it expanded to allow users to post and share GIFs on redes sociais[3] plataformas como Facebook[4]. Over the years, Giphy has raised significant funding and was acquired by Facebook Inc., now known as Meta-plataformas[1]. Despite facing legal issues related to privacidade[5] and market competition, Giphy has maintained its growth, boasting over 200 million daily users. The platform also works closely with brands for marketing promotions and has made collaborative efforts with entities like Universal Studios and Line. Giphy’s impact is reflected in its media coverage, with various outlets reporting on its developments.
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.
