Sharp Powered

Our image converter is powered by Sharp, a high-performance Node.js image processing library built on top of libvips.

Why Sharp?

• Professional-grade quality: libvips is used by major image processing services and provides industry-standard image conversion
• Memory efficient: Processes images in streaming fashion, using minimal memory even for large files
• Fast processing: Optimized C++ backend ensures quick conversions without compromising quality
• Format support: Handles WebP, AVIF, PNG, JPEG, and many other formats with precision

Technical Details

Sharp uses libvips, a demand-driven, horizontally threaded image processing library. Unlike traditional image libraries that load entire images into memory, libvips processes images in small tiles, making it incredibly memory-efficient and fast.
