Features

Browser-Local Processing

Images are processed in your browser using WebAssembly and browser file APIs. The tool does not upload selected images to our servers.

Batch Compression

Compress up to 20 images simultaneously. All files are processed in parallel using Web Workers so the UI stays responsive.

Quality & Dimension Control

Fine-tune compression with a quality slider (10–100%) and an optional max dimension setting to resize large images.

Format Conversion

Output as JPEG, PNG, or WebP regardless of input format. Convert PNGs to WebP for smaller web-ready images.

ZIP Download

Download all compressed images in a single ZIP archive with one click, or save individual files separately.

Before & After Stats

See the original size, output size, and percentage change for each image so you can decide whether the result is useful.
