Why convert to WebP instead of just compressing my JPG or PNG?

WebP's compression is generally more efficient than JPG's for photos and PNG's for graphics, so the same image usually comes out smaller in WebP at a similar visual quality.

Will converting to WebP work for animated GIFs?

This converter is for static JPG and PNG images. Animated content should stay in its original animated format for now.

Do all browsers support WebP?

All current major browsers do. If your specific audience includes much older browsers, check their WebP support before switching your primary image format.

Convert your images to WebP, for free

WebP is a modern image format most current browsers support, and it typically produces smaller files than JPG or PNG at the same visual quality — a common win for web pages that need to load fast.

04Download each result, or grab all of them at once as a ZIP.

Tips for better results

WebP supports transparency like PNG does, so converting a PNG with transparency to WebP keeps it intact.
If your site or app needs to support very old browsers, check WebP support for your audience first — Pixo hides the WebP option automatically if your own browser can't produce it.
Converting a photo already saved as a heavily-compressed JPG won't recover detail that's already lost — for the best result, convert from the original photo if you still have it.
