About the two formats

BMP

BMP stores every pixel with no compression at all, so even simple images take megabytes. It’s mostly found in old software, scanners and exports.

WebP

WebP was built to make web images smaller than JPG and PNG at the same quality. Websites use it widely, which is why images you save from the web are often WebP.

Questions

Do my files get uploaded?

No. BMP to WebP runs entirely in your browser, so your files never leave your device. Close the tab and they're gone.

Is it really free?

Yes. No account, no daily limits and no watermark on your files.

Can I keep it lossless?

This converter uses WebP’s lossy mode at your chosen quality. Choose BMP to PNG if you need a pixel-perfect copy.
