About AVIF Cropper

AVIF is the most space-efficient image format available today, often 40-50% smaller than JPG at the same visual quality. Cropping straight to AVIF means the final file is already optimized for size. Note: AVIF encoding requires a Chromium-based browser (Chrome or Edge) — Firefox and Safari can't encode AVIF through Canvas yet.

How the AVIF Cropper works

VIPToolkit's AVIF cropper runs in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. Draw your crop, lock an aspect ratio if needed, and export to AVIF. Nothing is uploaded anywhere.

Common uses for cropping to AVIF

Common use cases: preparing crops for a performance-critical website, cutting down bandwidth-heavy hero images, and trimming assets for a next-gen image pipeline. Need something that works in every browser? Try the JPG Cropper or WebP Cropper instead.

Ran into the Firefox limitation at first, but switching to Chrome fixed the AVIF export for a bandwidth-heavy landing page image. No complaints at all.

Cropped for a Core Web Vitals optimization project; the AVIF output was roughly half the size of the PNG version. Saved me a good chunk of time.

Used this for a next-gen image pipeline test since AVIF gave the best compression at the quality I needed. No complaints at all.
