WebP Compression Tips
Already Optimized?
If your WebP files were created with careful quality settings, further compression may yield modest savings. The biggest gains come from WebP files created at 100% quality.
Target File Sizes
For web performance, aim for images under 100 KB. Hero images can be 150-300 KB. Thumbnails should be under 30 KB. Use the quality slider to hit these targets.
Batch Optimize
Compress an entire folder of WebP images at once to quickly optimize a website's image assets. Download as ZIP and deploy the optimized versions.

Unlike online compressors that upload your images to their servers, PhotoFormatLab processes everything locally in your browser. Your files are never transmitted anywhere — they stay on your device.
