-WebP is a method of lossy compression that can be used on photographic
-images. The degree of compression is adjustable so a user can choose the
-trade-off between file size and image quality.
+WebP is a new image format that provides lossless and lossy compression for
+images on the web. WebP lossless images are 26% smaller in size compared to
+PNGs. WebP lossy images are 25-34% smaller in size compared to JPEG images at
+equivalent SSIM index. WebP supports lossless transparency (also known as alpha
+channel) with just 22% additional bytes. Transparency is also supported with
+lossy compression and typically provides 3x smaller file sizes compared to PNG
+when lossy compression is acceptable for the red/green/blue color channels.
-webpconv is a command line tool for converting images to and from
-the WebP format.
+Webmasters and web developers can use the WebP image format to create smaller
+and richer images that can help make the web faster.
