GIPHY, a leader in visual expression and creation, is joining the Facebook company today as part of the Instagram team.

GIPHY makes everyday conversations more entertaining, and so we plan to further integrate their GIF library into Instagram and our other apps so that people can find just the right way to express themselves.

Revealing the relationship between both companies, Facebook said it has partnered with GIPHY for years and that the company would continue to operate its library.

Instagram vice president of product, Vishal Shah, said:

We’re looking forward to investing further in its technology and relationships with content.

GIFs and stickers give people meaningful and creative ways to express themselves. We see the positivity in how people use GIPHY in our products today, and we know that bringing the GIPHY team’s creativity and talent together with ours will only accelerate how people use visual communication to connect with each other.”

That’s why we’re thrilled to announce that GIPHY has been acquired by Facebook and is joining the team at Instagram.

Instagram has revolutionized self-expression. More than one billion people use Instagram to communicate how they’re feeling and what they’re passionate about — we can’t wait to help those people become even more animated.

A blog from the GIPHY team on Friday said that GIPHY was created in 2013 to make communication more fun.
