    How to convert WebP to AVIF

    1. Drop your WebP files onto the box above, or paste them with Ctrl+V.
    2. Pick a quality. Around 90% is indistinguishable from the original for most images.
    3. Your browser does the work on your own machine.
    4. Save each file from its tile, or take them all at once.

    What changes, and what does not

    The loss compounds

    Both formats throw detail away to get small, so a WebP that was already compressed once is compressed again on the way to AVIF, this time including the artefacts of the first pass. Convert from the original rather than from a copy, and do it once.

    Colour

    WebP: 16.7 million, plus transparency, in both lossy and lossless modes. AVIF: millions, with 10 and 12 bit depth and wide colour where the source has it.

    How much smaller will the file be?

    It depends on the quality you choose. At the default the result is usually a little smaller, because AVIF is the more efficient of the two, but the honest answer is that you are re-compressing something already compressed and the gain is modest. Drop the quality and the file drops with it.

    Can I convert it back afterwards?

    Each pass loses a little more, so a file converted back and forth repeatedly will visibly degrade. Once is fine. Doing it as a habit is not. Always start from whichever copy has been compressed fewest times.

    About WebP

    Google’s format: 25-35% smaller than JPEG at the same quality, with transparency.

    About AVIF

    The smallest of the four, often half a JPG. We ship the encoder, so it costs a one-off download.

    Worth knowing: Needs a browser released in the last few years to decode.

    Will the quality change?

    AVIF is lossy, so the image is decoded and re-encoded and a little detail is dropped. At high quality this is invisible. Convert once from your original rather than repeatedly, because each pass compounds.

    Other conversions

    WebP also converts to JPG, PNG, PDF and Word.

    AVIF also comes from HEIC, PNG, JPG, GIF and BMP.
