How This Tool Works
The converter uses GD library functions to create WebP images, applying appropriate compression based on the input format. Lossless conversion is used for PNG inputs to maintain quality, while lossy compression optimizes other formats. Animated GIFs are converted to static WebP images. All processing happens in memory and the result is returned as a data URI โ no files are written to disk at any point.

Privacy & Security
