Open Compress WebP OnlineWhy WebP gets large
Cameras and image editors often save WebP at quality 95-100%, where the extra bytes buy nothing visible. Dropping to 70-80% keeps photos flawless while slashing size — the trick is that most WebP files are already over-compressed from the source.
Compression is lossless to the eye
Compressed at quality 75-82%, a WebP photo is visually identical to the original. On websites, this can cut page weight by hundreds of KB per image — a direct Core Web Vitals and SEO win.
