Transform your JPEG, PNG, and GIF images to WebP format. Get 30% smaller files with the same visual quality.
Convert to WebPWebP is a modern image format developed by Google that provides superior compression for web images.
Compared to JPEG, WebP images are 25-34% smaller at equivalent visual quality. Compared to PNG, WebP offers 26% smaller file sizes while supporting transparency.
Smaller images mean faster loading pages. Improve your Core Web Vitals and SEO rankings.
WebP is supported by all modern browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge.
Reduce hosting costs and CDN usage with smaller image files across your website.
Unlike JPEG, WebP supports alpha channel transparency like PNG but with smaller file sizes.
Replace heavy GIF animations with animated WebP for much smaller file sizes.
Modern WebP compression maintains excellent visual quality despite smaller file sizes.
Use the <picture> element to serve WebP with fallbacks for older browsers.
<picture>
<source srcset="image.webp" type="image/webp">
<source srcset="image.jpg" type="image/jpeg">
<img src="image.jpg" alt="Description">
</picture>Browsers that support WebP will load the WebP version. Others will fall back to JPEG.
WebP is supported by all modern browsers: Chrome, Firefox, Safari (14+), Edge, and Opera. This covers over 97% of global browser usage. For the small percentage of users on older browsers, serve JPEG/PNG fallbacks using the <picture> element.
Yes! WebP fully supports alpha channel transparency, just like PNG. When you convert a transparent PNG to WebP, the transparency is preserved. WebP transparent images are typically much smaller than their PNG equivalents.
AVIF offers even better compression than WebP (20% smaller) but has lower browser support (~90%). WebP is the safer choice for universal support. For best results, serve both: AVIF for supported browsers, WebP as fallback, and JPEG for legacy support. OctoSqueeze generates all formats automatically.
Yes, WebP supports animation and produces much smaller files than GIF. A 1MB GIF can often be reduced to 100-200KB as animated WebP while maintaining the same quality and frame rate.
