Convert JPG to AVIF — Next-Generation Compression
Encode JPG photos into AVIF, the format that delivers dramatically smaller files than JPG or WebP at the same quality.
Drop files or click to upload
Supports JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC, PDF, and more. Paste (Ctrl+V) works too.
How Our Privacy Engine Works
When you drop an image onto VisualConvert, our code runs entirely inside your device's web browser using modern web standards (Canvas API & WebAssembly). Unlike traditional converters that upload your photos to remote servers, process them there, and send them back, VisualConvert processes everything locally in your computer's memory. You can verify this anytime: open your browser's Developer Tools (F12), switch to the Network tab, and drop a file — you will see zero upload requests!
About converting JPG to AVIF
AVIF is the newest mainstream image format, built on the AV1 video codec. It routinely produces files up to 50% smaller than JPG at matching quality, making it the best choice for image-heavy sites that want the fastest possible loading.
VisualConvert encodes AVIF locally where your browser supports it, so your originals stay private and you avoid the daily caps and upload queues of online converters. Convert a batch of product photos or hero images and ship far lighter assets.

AVIF is supported in Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari. For maximum reach, many sites serve AVIF with a WebP or JPG fallback.
How much smaller is AVIF than JPG?
AVIF typically saves 30–50% over JPG at the same visual quality, and often beats WebP too.
My browser can't encode AVIF — what then?
AVIF encoding depends on your browser. If it is unavailable, try WebP for a very similar size benefit with universal support.
