About converting an image to WebP
A catch-all converter for turning any image your browser can open into WebP — usually the smallest file of the common formats at a given visual quality, and now broadly supported across modern browsers.
The image is decoded and re-encoded as WebP on a canvas at your chosen quality, entirely in your browser, with transparency preserved if the source format supported it.
Supported files
Accepts JPG, PNG, BMP, GIF and other common raster images. Produces a .webp image.
Is my file uploaded?
No. Whatever image you upload is decoded and re-encoded as WebP entirely in your browser — it's never uploaded.

Image to WebP — frequently asked questions
How much smaller will the file be?+
Usually 25–50% smaller than an equivalent JPG or PNG at similar quality, though it varies by image.
Is transparency kept?+
Yes — WebP supports an alpha channel, so transparent PNGs and GIFs stay transparent.
Does every browser open WebP?+
Every current browser does. For very old software, use Image to PNG instead.
Is there a free way to convert an image to WebP?+
Yes — this tool re-encodes whatever image you upload as WebP entirely in your browser, free and with nothing uploaded.
Do you upload my files to a server?+
No — every tool here processes your files entirely on your device, and nothing is uploaded to a server. The only exception is the AI tools, which send the extracted text (not the file) to Claude to do their work.
Is there a file size limit?+
There's no artificial limit we impose, but since processing happens in your browser, very large files (500+ MB or 1,000+ pages) are limited by your device's memory rather than by us.
