This is the one conversion on this site aimed at people building something rather than filling in a form. If you run a website, WebP is close to free performance: the same picture at the same apparent quality, in roughly 25 to 35 percent fewer bytes.
Support is no longer a reason to hesitate. Every current browser handles WebP, including Safari since 2020. The caveat is everything outside the browser: email clients, older desktop software and many upload forms still reject it, so use WebP for images you serve on your own pages and keep JPG for anything you send to someone else.
Unlike JPG, WebP can store transparency, so converting a PNG logo to WebP keeps its transparent background while typically producing a much smaller file than the PNG.
Quality preserved
Smarter compression
The reason it wins is a more modern compression method than JPG's, which dates from 1992. WebP predicts blocks from their neighbours before encoding the difference, so smooth gradients and flat regions — skies, walls, studio backdrops — cost dramatically less to store. Busy, highly detailed images benefit least, so the saving varies by picture.

Common questions
Is WebP safe to use on a live site now?
Yes. Every browser in current use supports it. The usual pattern is to serve WebP with a JPG fallback via a picture element, though for most sites plain WebP is now sufficient.
What quality setting should I use?
Around 80 is the usual sweet spot for web images and is the default here. WebP holds up better at lower settings than JPG does, so it is worth testing 70 to 75 on large background images.
Should I send WebP files to other people?
Generally no. Email clients and office software still handle it poorly. Use WebP for your own pages and JPG when a human will download and open the file.
