Image converter / runs in your browser / free
Five formats, any direction. Drop in up to twenty files at once, pick the output, and take them back as a ZIP. Nothing is uploaded anywhere.
Picking the output format is the whole decision. Everything else the tool does is mechanical.
| Format | Compression | Transparency | Animation | Reach for it when |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WEBP | Lossy or lossless | Yes | Yes | Anything going on a website |
| JPG | Lossy | No | No | Photographs, maximum compatibility |
| PNG | Lossless | Yes | No | Logos, icons, screenshots, sharp type |
| GIF | Lossless, 256 colours | Yes | Yes | Short loops, legacy requirements |
| BMP | None | No | No | Legacy Windows software that demands it |
Every conversion is a trade. These are the ones people actually run, and what happens to the file on the way through.
| Conversion | What changes | Worth knowing |
|---|---|---|
| JPG→WEBP | 25–35% lighter, same look | The single best thing you can do for page speed |
| PNG→WEBP | Much lighter, transparency kept | The right move for logos and UI on a site |
| PNG→JPG | Far lighter, transparency lost | Transparent areas turn solid — check the background first |
| JPG→PNG | Heavier, nothing recovered | PNG cannot restore detail JPG already discarded |
| WEBP→JPG | Heavier, broader support | For old software or a client who insists |
| GIF→PNG | Better colour, animation lost | Only the first frame survives |
| BMP→JPG | Dramatically lighter | BMP is uncompressed — expect a very large drop |
Drop in a whole folder's worth, pick one output format, and every file comes back converted in a single ZIP. Nothing is queued, nothing waits on a server, and the twentieth file finishes about as fast as the first.
If you are migrating a site to WebP or preparing a product catalogue, this is the part that saves the afternoon.
01 / WebP
WebP holds the same perceived quality as a JPG at roughly a quarter to a third less weight, and unlike JPG it handles transparency and animation. Every browser in current use supports it.
On a website that shows up immediately in Largest Contentful Paint, one of the Core Web Vitals Google measures. Converting an image library to WebP is one of the few optimisations that costs nothing and changes a number.
02 / One way
A lossy format throws detail away permanently. Converting a JPG to PNG produces a larger file containing exactly the same damage — PNG has nothing to restore. The same is true going from JPG to WebP: you keep what is there, you do not get back what was already discarded.
If you have the original, convert from that. Converting a converted file compounds the loss each time.
03 / Transparency
JPG has no alpha channel. A logo with a transparent background converted to JPG comes out on a solid fill, and you will usually only notice once it is sitting on a coloured page. If transparency matters, your outputs are PNG or WebP — never JPG.
04 / GIF and BMP
GIF is limited to 256 colours, so photographs turn blotchy, and its animations are heavier than a small video would be. BMP is uncompressed — a file can run many times the size of the same image as a JPG for no visible gain.
Both are supported here because software still produces them. Converting a GIF keeps the first frame only; the animation does not survive.
