How this tool fits your workflow
Smaller images load faster
Page speed affects bounce rate and SEO. Hero photos and product galleries are common culprits-dropping JPEG quality slightly often saves megabytes with little visible change.
Compress before you upload to your CMS, LMS, or storefront so visitors on mobile data get a snappier experience.
Quality slider in plain language
Higher quality preserves detail and grain; lower quality removes more information. Use the preview to find the smallest file you still find acceptable-there is no single "best" number for every photo.
For PNG graphics with flat colors, consider converting to WebP or PNG optimization elsewhere; this compressor targets JPEG-style photo workflows.

Frequently asked questions
- What image formats does the compressor support?
- The image compressor supports JPEG, PNG, and WebP. JPEG and WebP compression is lossy, meaning some quality is traded for smaller file size. PNG compression is lossless.
- How much can the image compressor reduce file size?
- Typical compression reduces JPEG and PNG files by 40-80% depending on the image content and quality setting. Photos compress more than graphics with flat colors.
- Is my image uploaded to a server?
- No. The compressor runs entirely in your browser using the Canvas API. Your images are never uploaded to any server. Processing is completely private.
- Will compression reduce image dimensions?
- No. The compressor only reduces file size (data) without changing the pixel dimensions. Width and height stay the same unless you separately use a resizer tool.
