The AV1 Image File Format (AVIF) is a new format which promises better compression and smaller file sizes than JPEG, PNG, WebP, and all other current image formats on the web. Based on the generic HEIF image format, AVIF supports alpha transparency, HDR, lossy and lossless compression. AVIF is already being used by Netflix and Microsoft.
