TIFF to WebP Converter

To convert TIFF to WebP, add your TIFF files, choose WebP, set the quality (80% by default) and press Convert. WebP shrinks huge scanner and camera TIFFs to a size that loads quickly on the web. Each file is uploaded to our servers over a secure connection, read there and deleted within 30 minutes at the latest. For a multi-page TIFF only the first page is converted.

  • Free, no sign-up
  • Uploaded securely, deleted within 30 minutes
  • Up to 50 MB per file

For multi-page TIFF files only the first page is converted.

Your file is uploaded to our servers over a secure (HTTPS) connection, converted there and permanently deleted within 30 minutes at the latest. Files are converted one after another.

How to convert TIFF to WebP

  1. Add your TIFF files

    Drag the files onto the upload area or browse for them; you can add several files and they are converted one after another.

  2. Keep WebP as the output

    WebP is already selected. The quality slider starts at a default that suits the format (JPG 90%, WebP 80%, AVIF 60%); lower it if you want an even smaller file.

  3. Convert and download

    Press “Convert”. Each file is uploaded to our servers, converted and deleted within 30 minutes at the latest; download the results one by one or as a ZIP.

What is preserved?

Kept

  • The image resolution (pixel dimensions)
  • The correct photo orientation (EXIF orientation is applied)
  • Colors (adapted to sRGB)
  • Transparency (alpha channel)

Changed

  • WebP is a lossy format: lower quality means a smaller file but less fine detail
  • The lossless source is recompressed at the quality you choose, so pixel values are no longer identical

Not carried over

  • EXIF, location and camera data: left out of the output for privacy
  • Pages after the first in a multi-page TIFF: only the first page is converted

When to use it

Publish scanned images online

Archives, museums and family historians scan in TIFF. WebP versions of those scans are light enough for galleries and web pages.

Share print photography on the web

Photographers deliver TIFF for print. A WebP copy is the right size for a portfolio site or a client preview.

Limitations to know

  • Up to 50 MB and about 100 megapixels per file.
  • The file is uploaded to our servers and deleted within 30 minutes at the latest; several files are converted one after another.

About the formats

What is TIFF?

TIFF is a high-quality image format used for scans, professional photography and printing. It typically stores pixels without lossy compression and can hold high color depth and several pages in one file, so files are very large. Web browsers do not display TIFF, so it is converted to JPG or PNG for sharing and publishing.

What is WebP?

WebP is an image format developed by Google for the web. It supports both lossy and lossless compression, transparency and animation, and typically produces smaller files than JPG or PNG at similar quality. All current browsers display WebP, though some older editors and print services cannot open it.

Frequently asked questions

How much smaller will my TIFF get as WebP?

Often fifty times or more for uncompressed scans and photos. The exact factor depends on the image and the quality you choose.

Is the TIFF's transparency kept?

WebP supports transparency, so a TIFF with an alpha channel, such as a cut-out product shot, keeps its see-through areas.

What happens to the other pages of my TIFF?

Only the first page is read. If your TIFF holds several scanned pages, TIFF to PDF is the better way to keep them together.

Is converting TIFF to WebP free?

Yes, completely free. There is no account, subscription or watermark; just add your files and convert them.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

Yes. This conversion runs on our servers, so your file is uploaded over an encrypted (HTTPS) connection, converted there and permanently deleted within 30 minutes at the latest. It is stored under a random code instead of its name, and processing is fully automated. EXIF and location data are not added to the output.
