The conversion process transforms your WebP image into the more efficient AVIF format, optimizing file size while preserving visual quality for better web performance.
AVIF was developed by the Alliance for Open Media and first released in 2019, making it significantly newer than WebP (2010). While WebP was created by Google, AVIF has backing from major tech companies including Google, Mozilla, Microsoft, and Netflix. Interestingly, AVIF can achieve up to 50% better compression than WebP while maintaining similar visual quality. Despite being newer, AVIF already has support in Chrome, Firefox, and Safari, reaching over 75% of global web users as of 2023.
AVIF's superior compression comes from its foundation in the AV1 video codec, which was designed to succeed VP9 (WebP's foundation). AVIF supports 10-bit and 12-bit color depths compared to WebP's 8-bit limitation, allowing for more vibrant HDR images. It also features better alpha transparency handling and more efficient chroma subsampling. One technical challenge with AVIF is its higher encoding complexity, requiring more processing power to create images, though decoding is relatively efficient. This makes AVIF ideal for "encode once, decode many times" scenarios like web content delivery.
WebP is an image format developed by Google that provides both lossy and lossless compression. It was designed to create smaller, better-looking images that make the web faster. WebP offers superior compression compared to PNG and JPG while maintaining good visual quality.
While WebP offers good compression, AVIF provides even better compression efficiency and quality. Converting to AVIF can result in smaller file sizes while maintaining excellent image quality, which is beneficial for web performance and storage optimization.
AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) is a modern image format that offers superior compression and quality compared to traditional formats. It uses the AV1 video codec to achieve smaller file sizes while maintaining excellent visual quality.
Yes, you can upload WebP images up to 10MB in size. For larger files, we recommend compressing them first or using our image compression tool.
Our converter maintains high quality during conversion. AVIF typically offers better quality-to-size ratio than WebP, so you might even see improved quality with similar or smaller file sizes.
Most conversions are completed within seconds. The exact time depends on the file size and the server load.
Yes, we take data security seriously. Your images are processed on our secure servers and are automatically deleted after conversion. We don't store your images permanently.
AVIF offers superior compression compared to WebP, JPG, and PNG while maintaining excellent image quality. It supports HDR, wide color gamut, and has both lossy and lossless compression. AVIF is increasingly supported by modern browsers and platforms, making it ideal for web optimization.
