Why Convert TIFF to AVIF?
The short version: TIFF is optimized for professional photography, scanning, and print production, AVIF is optimized for high-efficiency images for fast-loading modern websites, and this converter exists for the moment those two needs don't line up.
TIFF is typically produced by or used with Photoshop, scanning software, and print workflows, for professional photography, scanning, and print production. AVIF is expected by modern browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari) instead, for high-efficiency images for fast-loading modern websites — converting bridges that gap.
If you need a file built for high-efficiency images for fast-loading modern websites but only have one built for professional photography, scanning, and print production, converting is usually the fastest path — TIFF and AVIF serve different enough purposes that recreating the asset from scratch rarely makes sense.

Frequent Questions
What's the real difference between TIFF and AVIF?
TIFF is built around professional photography, scanning, and print production (a flexible, lossless raster format). AVIF is built around high-efficiency images for fast-loading modern websites instead (a modern AV1-based compressed image format) — different enough that this is a genuine format conversion, not just a rename.
Is this conversion free?
Yes — free for files up to 50MB, with a 100MB limit for registered accounts, no subscription required.
Will I lose anything converting TIFF to AVIF?
Converting to AVIF means adapting to a real constraint: unsupported by older browsers and some legacy software. Anything TIFF carries — built as it is for professional photography, scanning, and print production — that has no equivalent there won't make the trip, but the core content converts faithfully.
What software works with the converted AVIF file?
AVIF is used by modern browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari). If you were working with Photoshop, scanning software, and print workflows (which produces TIFF), this conversion is the direct bridge between the two.
Do I need any special settings before uploading my TIFF file?
No special setup is required — upload the file as-is. TIFF files meant for professional photography, scanning, and print production convert most predictably; unusually exported or non-standard files are the most common reason a specific one might need extra attention.
