Does transparency survive the conversion?

Yes. WebP stores an alpha channel just like PNG, so transparent backgrounds come through intact.

How much smaller will the file be?

Often dramatically — transparent PNGs frequently drop by 60–80%, because PNG stores every pixel losslessly while WebP compresses far more efficiently.

Is this lossless like PNG?

No. We encode at 92% quality, which trades a small, generally invisible amount of detail for a much smaller file. Keep the original PNG as your editing master.

Should I use WebP for logos and icons?

For the web, yes — it's smaller and every current browser supports it. Keep a PNG or SVG copy for print, email signatures and apps that don't read WebP.

Can I convert several at once?

Yes. Add up to 20 PNGs and they convert in one batch, downloadable individually or as a single ZIP.

Are my images uploaded?

No. Conversion runs entirely in your browser, so your images stay on your device.

PNG is the format people reach for when they need a transparent background, but it's an expensive way to store one — a lossless PNG of a photo-like image can be several times the size of the equivalent WebP. WebP supports the same alpha channel, so you keep the transparency and lose most of the bytes.

That combination is what makes WebP the standard choice for logos, icons, UI assets and product cut-outs on the web. A transparent PNG hero image weighing 800 KB routinely drops to well under 200 KB as a WebP with no visible difference.

Because WebP is lossy at the quality we use, keep your original PNG as the master copy for future editing and treat the WebP as the export. Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded.
