WebP vs AVIF

Both WebP and AVIF are modern, efficient formats. AVIF offers the following improvements over WebP:

  • Better compression — AVIF is typically 20–30% smaller than WebP at the same quality level.
  • Better quality at low bitrates — AVIF preserves more detail, especially in shadows and gradients.
  • Growing support — AVIF is now supported in Chrome 85+, Firefox 93+, Safari 16+, and Edge 121+.

If you are already serving WebP, upgrading to AVIF is a worthwhile optimisation for modern browsers.

Browser Requirements

AVIF encoding requires Chrome 93+ or Firefox 93+. Safari supports displaying AVIF images but does not support encoding them via the Canvas API. Use Chrome or Firefox to run this tool.

Frequently Asked Questions
