JPG to WebP
WebP usually produces a smaller file than JPG at the same visual quality, which is why most sites prefer it for photos. This tool converts your JPG files to WebP right in your browser.

Is WebP safe to use for a website?
Yes, current versions of Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari all display WebP images. If you support very old browsers you may want a JPG fallback, but for most sites in 2026 switching product and blog photos to WebP is a straightforward file size win.
Why do sites bother converting to WebP instead of just using JPG?
Page load speed affects both search ranking and how many visitors stay rather than leave before the page finishes loading, and images are usually the heaviest part of a typical page. Swapping JPGs for WebP at the same visual quality is one of the cheapest wins available: no redesign, no change to how the page looks, just a smaller download for every visitor.
Does converting an already compressed JPG to WebP lose more quality?
A little, the same generation loss that happens converting between any two lossy formats. It is small enough not to matter for a typical web photo, but if you have the original, uncompressed version of the image available, converting from that instead of from an already compressed JPG gives a cleaner result at the same output file size.
Frequently asked questions
Will my browser be able to create WebP files?
Chrome, Edge and Firefox can all encode WebP through this tool. Safari cannot create WebP files through the browser's canvas; use Chrome, Edge or Firefox for this conversion if you are on a Mac or iPhone, and the tool tells you clearly rather than producing a broken file if your browser cannot.
How much smaller will my file be?
It depends on the image, but 25 to 35 percent smaller than the equivalent JPG at the same visual quality is typical for photos.
Can I convert a whole folder of JPGs at once?
Yes, drop in up to 50 files and download the WebP results together as one ZIP.
Will converting to WebP change how my image looks?
Not at the default quality of 80 for a typical photo. Push the slider much lower and you will start to see the same kind of softness any lossy format shows at a low setting.
Does WebP support transparency the same way PNG does?
Yes, though it does not apply to a JPG source, since JPG never has transparency to begin with. Use PNG to WebP instead if your source image already has a transparent background to preserve.
Is WebP better for photos or graphics?
Both, which is part of why it has become popular: its lossy mode handles photos well, similar to JPEG, and its lossless mode handles flat graphics and transparency well, similar to PNG, in one format.
