Next-gen compression, usually smaller than WebP.

Conversion runs entirely in your browser — your image never leaves your device.

WebP to AVIF Converter

Already shipped your images as WebP? AVIF's encoder usually finds another 20–30% of savings at the same visual quality — meaningful at scale for image-heavy pages. Re-encode locally in your browser: drop the WebP, compare the live size readout, download the AVIF.

Is the Extra Step Worth It?

For a handful of images, the savings are modest. Across a whole site — hero images, illustrations, screenshots — 20–30% less on the largest assets shows up directly in load times and bandwidth. CDN image services made exactly this migration their default.

The live before/after readout settles it per image: if AVIF comes out bigger or barely smaller, keep the WebP.

Transparency and Encoding Time

The alpha channel survives the trip, so transparent logos and graphics stay transparent. Encoding runs a few seconds per image — AVIF's analysis is heavier than WebP's, and those seconds are what buy the smaller files.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much smaller is AVIF than WebP?

Typically 20–30% at the same visual quality, with photographic and gradient-heavy images saving the most. Flat, tiny graphics may see little benefit — check the live readout per image.

Does re-encoding WebP to AVIF lose quality?

Both formats are lossy, so a second lossy encode compounds slightly — at quality 90 the difference is visually undetectable. Keep your original source files as the master copy.

Should I serve AVIF with a WebP fallback?

Yes — that's the standard modern pattern: a <picture> element with AVIF first and the WebP as fallback for browsers without AVIF support. The WebP you already have is that fallback.

Which browsers support AVIF?

Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Opera have for years; Safari since 16.4 (2023). Combined coverage is comparable to where WebP stood a couple of years into its rollout.
