About Image Compression
Image compression reduces file size by removing visual data that is less perceptible to the human eye. Upload any image, use the quality slider to find the right balance between size and quality, then download the smaller file.
All processing happens entirely in your browser using Canvas API. Your files never leave your device — no uploads, no servers, complete privacy.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does image compression work?
The compressor re-encodes your image at a lower quality level, removing visual data that's less noticeable to the human eye. This significantly reduces file size while keeping the image looking good.
What quality setting should I use?
For most photos, 75-85% quality offers the best balance between file size and visual quality. Below 60% you may start to notice artifacts. For web images, 80% is a great default.
Is the compression lossy?
Yes, JPG and WebP compression is lossy — some visual data is discarded to reduce file size. For lossless compression, convert to PNG instead, though the file size reduction will be smaller.
Is this tool free?
Yes, completely free with no limits. Compress as many images as you need.
Are my files safe?
Yes. All compression happens directly in your browser. Your files never leave your device — nothing is uploaded to any server.
Can I compress multiple images at once?
Yes! Drag and drop multiple images. They're all compressed and downloadable as a ZIP archive.
