Why Convert AVIF to WebP?
Both AVIF and WebP are modern image formats designed to replace JPG. So why would you convert from one to the other? The answer is compatibility.
WebP has been around since 2010 and has significantly broader software support than AVIF (introduced in 2019). Many content management systems, email marketing platforms, image editing tools, and older browser versions support WebP but not yet AVIF. Converting to WebP gives you a modern, efficient format that works in more places.
Web developers sometimes need WebP as a fallback format in their image pipeline. While AVIF offers the best compression, WebP serves as the middle tier between AVIF and JPG in a progressive enhancement strategy.
WebP also encodes faster than AVIF, which matters in automated image processing pipelines where encoding time affects workflow speed.
