Convert QOI to WebP
WebP gives you roughly 30% smaller files than JPG at similar quality, and it can keep transparency. Everything happens locally: QOI files are decoded by your browser and written back out as WebP without ever touching a server.

What is QOI?
A modern lossless image format published in 2021. It compresses far faster than PNG while producing files of comparable size.
Why convert QOI to WebP?
WebP gives you roughly 30% smaller files than JPG at similar quality, and it can keep transparency.
Almost nothing opens a .qoi file — not browsers, not Photoshop, not your phone. Converting to PNG makes it usable while staying perfectly lossless.
How this converter handles QOI
Full decoder for the QOI spec: RGB, RGBA, index, diff, luma and run chunks. We can also output QOI, which very few web tools offer.
Why the conversion happens on your device
This page is a static file. There is no upload endpoint, no queue and no server-side conversion step — the work is done by JavaScript running in your own browser. That has three practical consequences:
- Nothing is transmitted. Open your browser's network panel and confirm it yourself.
- No file size limit. Server-based converters cap uploads and throttle repeat use. Your machine has no such quota.
- No queue. Conversion starts immediately and runs at local speed.
Frequently asked questions
- Is this really free?
- Yes, with no account, no watermark and no per-file limit. There is no server cost to recover because no server is involved.
- Are my files uploaded?
- No. The page has no backend to upload to. You can verify this in your browser's developer tools, or by loading the page and disconnecting from the internet before converting.
- Does converting QOI to WebP lose quality?
- WebP is a lossy format, so there is some loss — it is a trade-off you make deliberately in exchange for a much smaller file. Use the quality slider to control it; 90% and above is usually indistinguishable for photographic content.
- Can I convert many files at once?
- Yes — drop a batch and they are processed one after another.
- What if my browser cannot decode QOI?
- For formats browsers do not support natively (TGA, QOI, PPM/PGM/PBM, farbfeld, BMP, ICO) FormatAtlas ships its own decoder, so support does not depend on your browser version.
