WebP is a raster graphics file format developed by Google intended as a replacement for JPEG, PNG, and GIF file formats. It supports both lossy and lossless compression, [8] as well as animation and alpha transparency. Google announced the WebP format in September 2010, and released the first stable version of its supporting library in April ...
The PNG (Portable Network Graphics) file format was created as a free, open-source alternative to GIF. The PNG file format supports 8-bit (256 colors) paletted images (with optional transparency for all palette colors) and 24-bit truecolor (16 million colors) or 48-bit truecolor with and without alpha channel – while GIF supports only 8-bit ...
XMP standardizes a data model, a serialization format and core properties for the definition and processing of extensible metadata. It also provides guidelines for embedding XMP information into popular image, video and document file formats, such as JPEG and PDF, without breaking their readability by applications that do not support XMP ...
WebP files allow for both lossy and lossless compression, while PNG only allows for lossless compression. WebP also supports animation, something that only GIF files could previously accomplish. [61] The main improvements of WebP over PNG, however, are the large reduction in file size and therefore faster loading times when embedded into websites.

Glenn Randers-Pehrson spearheaded efforts to reconcile the PNG purists' position with that of APNG proponents by recommending changes to APNG's format and proposing the use of a unique MIME type (e.g., video/png), but the APNG proponents only added the different MIME type (image/apng) [5] while insisting on the use of the .png extension instead ...
The intended purpose was to create an open source lossless compression method that was faster and easier to implement than PNG.Figures specified in the blog post announcing the format claim 20-50 times faster encoding, and 3-4 times faster decoding speed compared to PNG, with similar file sizes.
