      PNG files are often large. AVIF usually stores the same image far more compactly while keeping transparency - ideal for logos and graphics on fast websites.

      The PNG is decoded locally and encoded as AVIF with a self-hosted codec; the alpha channel is preserved. The quality slider controls the file size. Nothing is uploaded.

      AVIF pays off here especially with large photos or illustrations full of gradients: there the lossy method brings huge savings a lossless PNG can never reach. For a flat graphic with few colours - a simple logo or an icon - the difference is smaller, and a well-optimised PNG can keep up. AVIF also supports a wide colour gamut and high bit depths, which avoids visible banding in photos with subtle brightness transitions.

      In practice on the web you use this format to make a page's often heavyweight PNG screenshots and product images noticeably lighter without visitors noticing a difference. Always check the result with your own eyes, though: set the slider high enough that sharp labels or fine lines do not fray, and keep the lossless original in case you want to edit the subject again later.
