PNG is lossless and universal — ideal for UI assets, screenshots with text, and alpha transparency. WebP often yields 25–35% smaller files at similar visual quality, with lossy and lossless modes plus alpha.
Tentaco Image Studio converts between PNG, WebP and AVIF locally in your browser — no upload limits or third-party image APIs.
| Kenmerk | Tentaco | PNG vs WebP |
|---|---|---|
| Compression | Local convert + compress | WebP usually smaller |
| Transparency | Both support alpha | Both support alpha |
| Lossless | PNG + WebP lossless | PNG default; WebP optional |
| Browser support | Export both; pick per target | WebP ~97% global; PNG universal |
| Privacy | On-device in Image Studio | Depends on converter used |
Use PNG when you need maximum compatibility or pixel-perfect UI assets. Use WebP for photos and hero images where smaller files matter. Tentaco lets you batch-convert locally and keep both formats in your pipeline.
