FAQ
- What is the maximum file size?
- 3 MB. This is set by the Vercel free tier request body limit. For larger images, clone the repo and run locally — there is no size cap when self-hosted.
- Does conversion affect image quality?
- Lossless formats (PNG, TIFF) preserve every pixel. Lossy formats (JPEG, WebP, AVIF) use the quality slider — 80 is a good default that balances file size and visual fidelity.
- Why convert to WebP or AVIF?
- WebP is 25–35% smaller than JPEG/PNG at equivalent quality and is supported by all modern browsers. AVIF is 50% smaller still but takes longer to encode. Both are great for web delivery.
Why convert WebP to AVIF?
Converting WebP to AVIF lets you use the image in contexts that require the AVIF format, whether for compatibility, file-size, or workflow reasons.
- –Web optimisation — replace WebP assets on your website with AVIF to improve page load speed and Core Web Vitals scores.
- –Batch conversion of WebP files in a CI pipeline using the REST API: POST /api/image-converter.
- –Quick one-off conversion without installing software — everything runs in your browser.
About WebP and AVIF
WebP is a modern format developed by Google. It is 25–35% smaller than JPEG or PNG at equivalent quality and is supported by all modern browsers.
AVIF is based on the AV1 video codec and achieves up to 50% better compression than JPEG. It is supported by Chrome, Firefox, and Safari.
Quality note: Both formats use lossy compression. Converting between them introduces a second round of compression, which can slightly reduce quality. Where possible, convert from the original lossless source rather than from a previously compressed file.

- Yes. The conversion runs entirely in your browser using the Canvas API — your images are not uploaded to any server. No data leaves your device.
- Does converting WebP to AVIF reduce quality?
- Converting to AVIF uses lossy compression, so some quality reduction is possible. The tool uses high-quality settings by default. For archival use, keep the original WebP file.
- Can I convert multiple files at once?
- The web UI supports multiple files at once — drag and drop a batch of WebP images and download them all as AVIF. The REST API also accepts individual files for automated batch workflows.
