Why teams trust this converter

Zero-Trust Ready

Files never leave the tab. ICO binaries live inside WebAssembly memory and are disposed of immediately after producing a WebP output.

We tune FFmpeg flags so ICO characteristics (color depth, metadata) persist when writing WEBP deliverables.

Ops-Level Observability

Each run exposes duration, file size deltas, and CPU hints so production teams can benchmark ICO → WebP workflows.
