The standard web-performance conversion

WebP encodes the same photo about 25–35% smaller than JPEG at equal visual quality, which is why page-speed tools recommend it. The converter decodes your JPG in the browser and encodes WebP at quality 92; the result looks identical and loads faster.

Every current browser displays WebP, and it has been safe to serve without a JPEG fallback since Safari 14 in 2020.

Where not to use it

WebP is a display format. If the image is going to a print shop, into a Word document or to someone using older desktop software, keep the JPG. Converting JPG to WebP also does not recover quality: it is lossy-to-lossy, so do it once from the best source you have rather than repeatedly.

FAQ

Common questions

Are my files uploaded?

No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript — your file never leaves your device, so it's safe even for sensitive documents.

Is it free?

Yes — completely free, no signup, no watermark, and no daily limits.

How much smaller will the WebP be?

Usually 25–35% smaller than the JPG at the same visual quality, sometimes more for images with flat areas.

Is converting JPG to WebP lossy?

Yes, both formats are lossy, but at quality 92 the difference is invisible. Convert from the highest-quality JPG you have and avoid converting back and forth.
