How this works

WebP typically produces a smaller file than JPEG at similar visual quality, since it uses more efficient compression — useful when file size matters more than universal compatibility.

Common questions

Is WebP actually better than JPG?

For file size at equivalent quality, generally yes, often 25-35% smaller — WebP is a newer format with more efficient compression. The tradeoff is that a handful of older tools and some email clients still don't handle WebP well, so check your use case.

Do all browsers support WebP?

Every major modern browser does — Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge have all supported it for years. It's mainly older software, not browsers, that sometimes lacks support.
