Basic Usage #
Dashboard is at https://dashboard.webp.se/login, we support login with GitHub only.
Once you’ve logged in with GitHub, you can create your first Proxy.
For example, if your image is at https://docs.webp.se/images/webp-wordpress.png, then you should fillin https://docs.webp.se in Proxy Origin URL field.
After creation, you’ll find a new address, in the example below, it’s https://559a238.webp.ee.
Now you can make request to https://559a238.webp.ee/images/webp-wordpress.png for a WebP optimized image.
In order to change all your images url on website to new address, please refer to Access page.
Proxy Mode #
⚡ Rapid Mode #
On the first request, WebP Cloud will convert and optimize the image before returning it.
- Best for API-style use cases.
- Guarantees users always get optimized images.
- This is the current behavior for all existing proxies.
⚡ Consistency Mode #
On the first request, WebP Cloud will return the origin image immediately (after lightweight processing like EXIF removal or cropping), while the full optimization happens asynchronously in the background.
- Best for high-concurrency, large-scale traffic scenarios.
- Ensures instant responsiveness on first access.
- Subsequent requests will hit the cache and return the optimized version.
| Feature | Rapid | Consistency |
|---|---|---|
| First request | Waits for conversion, then returns optimized image | Returns origin immediately (lightly processed), optimizes in background |
| Experience | Always optimized, slightly slower on first access | Instant first access, optimized on later requests |
| Best for | API usage, strict quality requirements | High concurrency, large-scale traffic |
| Core value | Quality-first | Speed-first + Eventual consistency |
Refer to WebP Cloud Introduces Mode Selection — Rapid (Instant Optimization) and Consistency (Eventual Optimization Mode) for more details.
