Smaller than PNG, transparency kept

WebP supports an alpha channel, so it is the one lossy format that can replace a transparent PNG on a website. Files are typically 3–6× smaller than the PNG for photographic content and 20–40% smaller for graphics, encoded here at quality 92.

For UI assets, product cut-outs and logos on the web this is usually the right conversion; the result loads faster and looks the same.

Lossless PNG versus lossy WebP

This converter writes lossy WebP. If the PNG is a master file you will keep editing, keep the PNG and export WebP copies for display. If pixel-exactness matters (medical images, technical drawings), stay with PNG.

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.

Does PNG to WebP keep transparency?

Yes. WebP has a full alpha channel, so transparent areas stay transparent.

Is the WebP lossless?

No, it is encoded at quality 92 (lossy). For most graphics the difference is invisible; keep the PNG as your master copy.
