JPG to WEBP Converter

About the JPG to WEBP Converter

We built this JPG to WEBP Converter as a complete solution for modern image optimization. WEBP is a next-generation image format from Google that provides much better compression than traditional JPGs, which means your images will load faster on websites. Our tool helps you make that conversion easily while giving you full control over the process.

You can do more than just convert; you can also crop, resize, and fine-tune the compression settings to get the perfect balance between file size and image quality. The live preview and real-time file size comparison let you see the results of your changes instantly. Because the entire process runs in your browser, your images are never uploaded to our servers, ensuring your data is always private.

How to Use the Tool

• Upload a JPG file using the file browser or by dragging and dropping it onto the upload area.
• An interactive crop box will appear on your image. Drag and resize it to select the area you want to keep.
• Use the "Resize" options to set a specific width or height for the final WEBP image. Leave them blank to use the cropped dimensions.
• Adjust the "Quality" slider to change the compression level. Lower quality means a smaller file size.
• Check the "Result" preview and the stats bar to see how much file space you've saved.
• Click "Download .webp" to save your optimized image.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I convert my JPGs to WEBP?

The main reason is file size. WEBP images are typically much smaller than JPGs (often 25-35% smaller) at a similar level of visual quality. Smaller images make your website load faster, which improves user experience and can help with SEO.

What is a good quality setting for WEBP?

For most photographs, a quality setting between 75 and 90 provides an excellent balance of small file size and high visual quality. For images where quality is critical, you can use a higher setting. The best way is to adjust the slider and check the live preview to see what works best for your image.

How do I crop my image?

After you upload your JPG, a cropping box will appear over it. You can click and drag the box to move it, or drag the corners and edges to resize it. The "Result" preview on the right will update in real-time to show you what the final cropped image will look like.

Are all browsers compatible with WEBP?

Today, yes! All modern web browsers, including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge, have full support for the WEBP format. It is now considered a web standard and is safe to use for all web projects.

Is the image I upload kept private?

Yes, your privacy is guaranteed. The entire conversion process happens on your own computer, inside your web browser. Your JPG file is never sent to or stored on our servers.
