PNG vs AVIF
Lossless compression with an alpha channel. Pixel-perfect, which also makes it the heaviest option for photographs.
Built on the AV1 video codec. The smallest files of the five, often half the size of JPG, at the cost of slower encoding.

Your own file will land somewhere else — a photo, a screenshot and a flat logo compress very differently. What carries over is the direction and the rough scale.
Questions about PNG to AVIF
How do I convert PNG to AVIF?
Drop your PNG files onto the box above, pick a quality level if you want to override the automatic one, and press convert. The AVIF files download straight back to you — a single file on its own, or a ZIP when you convert several at once.
Is converting PNG to AVIF free?
Yes. There is no account, no watermark, and no per-file charge. Conversion runs on our servers, so it does not depend on how fast your own machine is.
Are my files stored anywhere?
No. Files are held in memory only while the conversion runs and are discarded the moment the result is sent back. Nothing is written to disk and nothing is written to a database.
Will the quality drop?
Both formats are lossy, so re-encoding always costs a little. The quality level is picked automatically from the image's size and pixel count so the loss stays below the visible threshold.
Why choose AVIF over PNG?
Built on the AV1 video codec. The smallest files of the five, often half the size of JPG, at the cost of slower encoding. Squeezing the last bytes out of a page where Core Web Vitals matter. Browser support: Every current browser; older Safari and Edge builds need a fallback.
