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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. No signup required for basic use—just drop your file and convert. We have paid tiers ($3.99 and $9.99/month) for batch processing and larger files, but the free tier is genuinely useful.
WebP uses lossy compression, so there's technically some quality loss—but at 80% quality, most people can't tell the difference. The point is that WebP achieves the same perceived quality at a smaller file size. If you need pixel-perfect output, use lossless mode.
All the ones that matter: Chrome, Firefox, Safari (14.1+), Edge, and Opera. That's over 97% of global users. Internet Explorer doesn't support it, but IE usage is below 1% and Microsoft stopped supporting it in 2022.
With a free account, you can batch convert up to 5 images at once. Pro users get up to 20, plus ZIP archive support.
Typically 25-34% smaller than the original JPG at equivalent visual quality. Results vary based on image content—photos with lots of detail compress differently than graphics with solid colors.
