PNG to AVIF Converter: Maximum Compression for Graphics
AVIF can compress graphics and photos far more aggressively than PNG while still supporting transparency, making it one of the most space-efficient formats available for web images today. ConvertBrio's PNG to AVIF converter handles the conversion instantly, no encoding software required.
Why Choose AVIF Over PNG
PNG's lossless compression keeps files larger than necessary for many use cases. AVIF, built on modern video-codec compression technology, can shrink the same image dramatically — sometimes by 80% or more — while keeping transparency and visual quality intact, which is a major win for site performance.
How the Conversion Works
Upload your PNG file and ConvertBrio outputs an AVIF version, preserving transparency and resolution. The process runs entirely in your browser and completes in seconds for typical image sizes.
Compatibility Notes
AVIF displays correctly in all current versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. Some older tools, email clients, and design software may not yet support it, so it's best suited for direct website use rather than files you'll hand off to third-party systems with unknown compatibility.

PNG to AVIF FAQ
Common questions about converting PNG images to AVIF.
Does AVIF support transparent backgrounds?
Yes, AVIF supports an alpha channel, so transparency in your original PNG carries over correctly to the converted AVIF file.
How much smaller will my AVIF file be?
Results vary by image content, but AVIF frequently shrinks PNG files by 70-80% or more, making it one of the most efficient formats currently available for the web.
Should I use AVIF or WEBP for my website?
AVIF usually compresses better, so it's worth using where your platform supports it. WEBP remains a solid, slightly more broadly compatible alternative if you run into upload restrictions with AVIF.
