Release: shot-scraper 1.12 I've added WebP support to my shot-scraper screenshot automation tool. You can now take a WebP screenshot of a web page like this: shot-scraper https://simonwillison.net -o screenshot.webp --quality 80 The --quality option sets the quality - without that option the WebP file will be lossless. In my experience WebP screenshots are almost always significantly smaller in file size than their JPEG or PNG equivalents.
