Why convert TIFF to AVIF?
TIFF is the standard for professional imaging — used in print production, medical imaging, and archival storage. However, TIFF files are extremely large and cannot be displayed in web browsers. AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) delivers exceptional compression: files are 60–80% smaller than TIFF while maintaining excellent visual quality.
AVIF supports millions of colors, alpha transparency, HDR content, and both lossy and lossless compression. It is supported in Chrome 85+, Firefox 93+, Safari 16.4+, and Edge 121+. Converting TIFF to AVIF is essential when preparing professional images for web publishing.
Note that AVIF uses lossy compression by default — some pixel-level detail may differ from the original TIFF. For archival purposes, keep the original TIFF. For web use, AVIF provides the best file-size-to-quality ratio available today.
All processing happens locally in your browser — nothing is sent to any server. No registration, no limits, no watermarks.

Tips for converting TIFF to AVIF
- Start with quality 85 – this is typically the sweet spot for AVIF compression, offering significant file size reduction with minimal visible quality loss.
- Batch convert for efficiency – if you have many TIFF files, use the batch conversion feature to process them all at once. This saves considerable time compared to one-by-one conversion.
- Compare before downloading – use the live preview to compare the original TIFF with the AVIF result. Adjust quality settings until you find the right balance for your specific use case.
- Keep your originals – always save a copy of your original TIFF files. Lossy compression is irreversible, so having the originals allows you to re-convert with different settings later.

Quality settings – what to choose when converting TIFF to AVIF?
The quality slider lets you set a value from 60% to 95%. Higher values mean better image quality but larger file sizes.
- 80% (default) – a good balance for most use cases: web publishing, blogs, articles. The visual difference compared to the original is virtually unnoticeable.
- 85–90% – for high-quality product photography, portfolios, and galleries where every detail matters.
- 60–70% – when minimizing file size is the priority, e.g. thumbnails or preview images.
TIFF files are typically very large (20–50 MB). At 80% quality, AVIF reduces them to 200–500 KB with minimal visible quality loss — a 95%+ reduction in file size.
How much can you save by converting TIFF to AVIF?
TIFF files are uncompressed or use lossless compression, making them extremely large. AVIF provides dramatic savings:
Camera photo (TIFF)
25 MB → 450 KB
Scanned document
