How to Convert TIFF to AVIF — Quick & Free
Fast, instant TIFF to AVIF conversion. No signup required. Just drop your .tiff file and get .avif in seconds.
Batch Settings
Layers will be flattened
TIFF supports multiple layers, but AVIF does not. All layers will be merged into a single flat image. Keep your original TIFF file if you need to edit individual layers later.
Some metadata may not survive
Your TIFF file may contain IPTC metadata. AVIF has limited or no support for these metadata types. Location data (GPS), camera settings, and color profiles may be stripped during conversion.
CMYK → RGB color conversion
Your TIFF file uses CMYK color space (designed for print). AVIF uses RGB. Colors will be converted — some print-specific colors (especially deep blues and vivid oranges) may shift slightly. For critical color matching, use a calibrated ICC profile.
Color depth reduction: 32-bit → 12-bit
TIFF stores up to 32 bits per channel, but AVIF supports only 12 bits. You may notice banding in smooth gradients (like sky or skin tones) where subtle color transitions are lost.
TIFF（タグイメージファイル形式）は、その高品質な画像表現から、特に印刷業界やプロフェッショナルな画像編集の現場で長らく重宝されてきました。しかし、ウェブの高速化と高精細化が進む現代において、より効率的で汎用性の高い画像形式が求められています。そこで注目されるのが、次世代の画像フォーマットであるAVIFです。AVIFは、優れた圧縮率を誇りながらも画質の劣化を最小限に抑え、ウェブサイトの読み込み速度向上に貢献します。この変換ツールは、お手持ちのTIFFファイルを、ウェブやモバイル環境に最適化されたAVIF形式へ、瞬時に、そして品質を損なうことなく変換できるよう設計されています。複雑な設定は一切不要。どなたでも簡単にご利用いただけます。
- 漫画・イラストのウェブ公開
- ビジネス文書の軽量化
- 高解像度画像のオンラインギャラリー
日本のコンテンツ産業において、漫画やイラストなどの高精細な画像をウェブで共有する際、ファイルサイズの削減と画質維持の両立は長年の課題でした。AVIFは、その両方を高いレベルで実現する有力な選択肢となり得ます。
About TIFF to AVIF Conversion
Short answer: yes, you can convert TIFF to AVIF online for free, and some quality differences may occur depending on the format types. Just upload your .tiff file to CocoConvert, pick AVIF as the output, and click Convert. The whole process takes seconds.
Now for the details. TIFF is an uncompressed or losslessly compressed format favoured in print, publishing, and professional photography. AVIF is the newest image format based on AV1 video codec, delivering exceptional compression — up to 50% smaller than JPEG at the same quality. Converting between these two formats lets you optimize files for fast web delivery.
Full Name: TIFF uses Tagged Image File Format, while AVIF uses AV1 Image File Format. Compression: TIFF uses Lossy & Lossless, while AVIF uses Lossy & Lossless. Transparency: TIFF uses Yes, while AVIF uses Yes.
Your TIFF file is decoded and re-encoded as AVIF. Your TIFF file uses CMYK color space (designed for print). AVIF uses RGB. Colors will be converted — some print-specific colors (especially deep blues and vivid oranges) may shift slightly. For critical color matching, use a calibrated ICC profile.
CocoConvert runs entirely online — no software to install, no account to create. Your files are encrypted during upload (TLS), processed on isolated servers in Germany, and permanently deleted after 24 hours. It works in Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, and all mobile browsers.
Need to convert more than one file? Free users can do 5 per hour. Pro gets 100 per hour with files up to 5 GB each.

What Happens When You Convert TIFF to AVIF
Your TIFF image is decoded into raw pixel data, then re-encoded as AVIF.
Your TIFF file is decoded — the compressed/stored pixel data is expanded into raw RGBA (with alpha channel) pixels
Pixels are re-encoded using AV1 Image File Format's lossless compression
Metadata (EXIF, ICC profiles) is transferred where AVIF supports it
The AVIF file is saved and ready for download

Frequently Asked Questions
Is TIFF to AVIF conversion free?
Yes. CocoConvert offers free TIFF to AVIF conversion with generous daily limits — 25 minutes of processing time and up to 5 files per hour (250 MB each). Pro plans remove these limits.
How fast is TIFF to AVIF conversion?
Most files convert in 2–10 seconds depending on size. Large image files may take 30 seconds. Batch jobs process in parallel for maximum speed.
What happens to my files after conversion?
Your uploaded TIFF file and the converted AVIF file are both automatically deleted from our servers within 24 hours. They are never shared, sold, or analysed.
Does converting TIFF to AVIF lose quality?
Your TIFF file uses CMYK color space (designed for print). AVIF uses RGB. Colors will be converted — some print-specific colors (especially deep blues and vivid oranges) may shift slightly. For critical color matching, use a calibrated ICC profile.
Can I convert AVIF back to TIFF?
Yes, CocoConvert supports AVIF to TIFF conversion as well. However, if the original conversion involved lossy compression, converting back won't recover the lost data.
Versions are pinned in our worker Dockerfile and re-built via CI on every change.
