How it works
This tool converts a JPG image into WebP using browser-based canvas encoding. The quality slider controls compression level.
- High quality (0.8–1.0): better visual quality, larger file size
- Medium quality (0.5–0.7): balanced size and quality
- Low quality (<0.5): smaller size but visible compression artifacts
- Result interpretation: "Saved %" shows how much smaller the WebP file is compared to the original JPG
Examples
- Website optimization: convert images to WebP to reduce page load time
- Blog images: reduce bandwidth usage while maintaining quality
- App assets: smaller images improve performance
- Testing compression: compare size differences at different quality levels
