Format facts

JPG
JPEG (JPG) is a lossy raster format that compresses photos by discarding some image detail.
Transparency
No transparency support; any transparent area is filled with white when converting to JPG.
Typical use
The standard format for photos and social media uploads, where file size matters more than pixel-perfect detail.
Browser support
Supported everywhere; adjustable quality trades file size for sharpness.
WebP
WebP is a modern raster format from Google that supports both lossy and lossless compression.
Transparency
Supports alpha transparency in both lossy and lossless modes.
Typical use
Used for faster-loading websites; typically 25-35% smaller than an equivalent JPG or PNG at similar quality.
Browser support
Supported by every current browser; some older image editors and legacy tools still expect JPG or PNG.

Why convert JPG to WebP?

WebP typically produces a smaller file than a JPG at similar visual quality, which helps pages load faster and can improve Core Web Vitals scores for image-heavy pages.

Every current browser renders WebP natively, so there is little compatibility risk for modern websites; keep the original JPG only if an older tool in your workflow still requires it.

Frequently asked questions

How much smaller will the WebP file be?

It depends on the image, but WebP is often 25-35% smaller than an equivalent-quality JPG. Adjust the quality slider to control the tradeoff.

Will my website visitors be able to view WebP images?

Yes. All current major browsers, including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge, display WebP natively.

Does converting to WebP affect transparency?

A JPG source has no transparency to begin with, so the WebP output is fully opaque as well.

Can I convert a batch of JPG photos at once?

Yes, add up to 20 JPG files and download results individually or as a ZIP.
