Aspect HEIC (Source Format) WebP (Target Format)
Format Overview
HEIC
High Efficiency Image File Format

Modern container using HEVC compression; supports HDR, wide color gamut, and metadata.

Raw
WebP
Web Picture Format

Modern image format by Google offering both lossy and lossless compression with alpha support.

Standard
Compression

Lossy HEVC-based; extremely efficient at reducing file size.

Lossy predictive or lossless Huffman; optimized for web delivery.

Color Depth

Up to 16 bits per channel; HDR and wide gamut support.

Why Convert HEIC to WebP?

WebP delivers exceptional compression for web images, often achieving smaller file sizes than HEIC while maintaining visual fidelity. This leads to faster page loads and reduced bandwidth usage—critical for performance‑focused web projects.

Unlike HEIC, WebP is natively supported by all modern browsers and can include alpha transparency, making it ideal for responsive design elements, overlays, and logos without additional plugins.

By converting HEIC photos to WebP, you combine the benefits of modern compression with universal web compatibility, ensuring your images look great and load quickly across all devices.
