Frame Extractor is a free, in-browser tool that saves the first or last frame of a video as a full-resolution JPEG still. It is built for frame chaining: the last frame of one AI clip becomes the first frame of the next, so shots flow continuously. The video is processed on your device and never uploaded.
How do I extract the first or last frame of a video?
Open FXI Frame Extractor, choose a video file from your device, and pick the first frame or the last frame.
The tool reads the video with your browser's own video and canvas tools, so nothing uploads, and it saves the frame as a full-resolution JPEG. Download the still, then frame-chain the next shot by feeding it in as the first frame of your next AI video clip.

What is Frame Extractor?
Frame Extractor pulls the opening or closing frame of a video and saves it as a JPEG at the source resolution. It runs entirely in your browser, with no upload and no account. This guide shows how to use it. To try it now, open the first & last frame extractor, or use the last frame extractor when you only need the closing frame as a PNG or JPG.
The main use is frame chaining. Feed the extracted last frame into an image-to-video or first-frame model as the start of your next shot, and the two clips join without a visible jump.
