FAQ
Which format should I use for my website?
WebP for everything, with JPEG/PNG fallbacks for older browsers. Use the HTML <picture> element to serve WebP to supported browsers and JPEG/PNG to others.
Is WebP always better than JPEG?
For web delivery, yes — WebP is 25-35% smaller at equivalent quality. For archival or editing, JPEG or TIFF is preferred because WebP has less software support for professional editing workflows.
