How It Works
Why JPG to WebP?
WebP is a modern image format developed by Google that typically produces files 25-34% smaller than JPG at the same visual quality. For a 1MB photo, that's 250-340KB saved—which adds up fast if you're running a website or blog.
The format uses more efficient compression than JPG's decades-old algorithm. We use libvips under the hood (same engine that powers Sharp), so conversions are fast and the quality is as good as it gets. Most conversions finish in under 2 seconds.
Browser support is no longer a concern—over 97% of users can view WebP natively. Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge all support it. The only holdout is Internet Explorer, and if your users are on IE, you probably have bigger problems.
