What is the Image Compressor?

The Image Compressor reduces an image’s file size by adjusting its quality level. JPEG and WebP are lossy formats, so even a small reduction in quality can meaningfully shrink the file size.

All processing happens entirely in your browser using the Canvas API — your image data is never sent to a server. If you need to significantly shrink a PNG, consider using the Image Converter to switch it to WebP or JPEG first.

Use Cases

  • Shrink images to improve a website's page load speed

FAQ

Is this tool free?

Yes, it is completely free to use.

Is my image sent to a server?

No. All processing happens in your browser using the Canvas API. Images are never uploaded to a server.

How much can a PNG be compressed?

PNG is a lossless format, so re-encoding alone won't shrink it much. For a bigger reduction, we recommend converting to WebP or JPEG instead.

How low should I set the quality?

It depends on your use case, but for web display, 70-85% often keeps visual quality nearly intact while noticeably reducing file size.
