Convert AVIF to JPG with an API

Convert AVIF to JPG directly in the live demo below, or use the same Assembly Instructions in your application. 🤖/image/resize handles the conversion as files are uploaded and can process an existing media library through an import Robot.

JPG has broader support in older software and common editing workflows, but it does not support transparency. Transparent AVIF pixels are flattened against the configured background during conversion. JPG is also lossy, so this example sets quality to 85 for a practical balance between visual quality and file size.

Keep the AVIF original if you may need to edit or re-encode the image later. For production workflows, connect the conversion Step to your preferred storage Robot and choose a quality value that matches your source material. See all supported image formats and image-processing options.

Step 1:

Handle uploads

We can handle uploads of your users directly.Learn more

":original": {
  "robot": "/upload/handle"
}

/upload/handle

This bot receives uploads that your users throw at you from browser or apps, or that you throw at us programmatically

Step 2:

Convert, resize, or watermark images

We can resize, crop, and (auto-)rotate images, or apply watermarks and other effects, and much more.Learn more

  "result": true,
  "format": "jpg",
  "quality": 85
}

/image/resize

This bot resizes, crops, changes colorization, rotation, and applies text and watermarks to images

Step 3:

Export files to Amazon S3

We export to the storage platform of your choice.Learn more

Loading Uppy demo…

This live demo is powered by Uppy, our open source file uploader that you can also use without Transloadit, and tus, our open protocol for resumable file uploads that is making uploading more reliable across the world.
