WebP is Google's image format — 25-35% smaller than JPG at equivalent visual quality, with support for both lossy and lossless modes plus transparency. Every modern browser supports it. The main use case: cutting page weight on websites. Lighthouse, PageSpeed Insights, and Core Web Vitals audits actively flag JPG/PNG hero images as "serve in next-gen formats" — WebP is the answer.
Every image conversion involves a small trade-off between quality, file size, and compatibility. Here's how to make the choice deliberately, not by accident.
The drop zone above accepts single images or batches. Free-tier uploads are limited to 10 MB per file — enough for phone photos and standard web images. Pro handles files up to 1 GB and batches of up to 20 at once. Filenames are preserved, and the new extension is appended automatically.
WEBP conversions default to a sensible middle ground — high enough that nothing visible is thrown away, low enough that the file isn't oversized. If you're preparing for print, pick a higher quality; for a web thumbnail, drop it. If the target format is lossless (PNG, TIFF, or WebP-lossless), there's no quality slider — every pixel is preserved.
The output is ready in a couple of seconds for a single image, or a few seconds for a batch delivered as a ZIP. Both the source you uploaded and the WEBP output are permanently deleted from our servers within 30 minutes — nothing is retained, backed up, or shared with anyone.
The pixel data in your source is decoded, held briefly in memory as a raw bitmap, and re-encoded into the target format's container. Along the way, we preserve the colour profile embedded in the source (TIFF usually carries sRGB; some phone cameras save wider gamuts), any alpha channel where both formats support it, and EXIF metadata where relevant.
If the target format lacks something the source has — say, transparency in a PNG being converted to JPG — that data flattens onto a background before encoding. You'll never lose visible pixels silently; where a trade-off happens, we default to the most common expectation for that specific format pair.
Real reasons people run this conversion — grounded in specific problems, not vague benefits.
WordPress rejects some source formats out of the box. Squarespace, Ghost, and most e-commerce platforms have their own preferred image formats. If the upload button greys out or throws an error, a quick conversion to WEBP usually fixes it — no plugin needed.
Some image formats are ecosystem-specific — HEIC belongs to Apple, WebP has patchy support on legacy Windows apps, and some tools still balk at anything newer than JPG. Converting to WEBP means the person receiving the file doesn't have to install anything to open it.
Passport portals, visa applications, university forms, and job platforms often specify an exact format and file-size ceiling. If the requirement is WEBP, this is the conversion. If they specify size too, run the compression tool afterwards to hit the target byte count.
Figma prefers PNG or SVG for exported assets. InDesign expects TIFF, EPS, or high-quality JPG for print. Canva takes almost anything but produces cleaner results with lossless sources. Converting your image to what the tool actually wants avoids the "why does this look pixelated" back-and-forth.
A 24-megapixel PNG is 20+ MB. Converting to a well-compressed WEBP typically brings that under 3 MB with no visible change on a normal screen. Perfect for sliding under Gmail's 25 MB attachment cap, WhatsApp's compression, or a form's "under 5 MB" rule.
For long-term storage, a stable, widely-supported format matters more than pixel-perfect quality. WEBP is a reasonable archival choice for TIFF sources when the goal is "openable in 10 years on whatever device exists then." Bonus: batch convert the entire folder in one pass.
Every conversion happens on TLS-encrypted uploads, on isolated per-request workers, with both the source and the result auto-deleted within 30 minutes. No ads, no watermarks on paid tiers, no metadata mined for training.
Technical comparison of the two formats — useful for deciding which to use, or for confirming what changes during conversion.
