Compression Options

Output format: Source keeps original format; WebP/JPEG/AVIF exports to specified format
Quality: Only adjustable for WebP/JPEG/AVIF; higher values mean clearer but larger files
Max edge: Pixels; empty or 0 means no limit; scales down proportionally, no stretching
Remove metadata: Strips EXIF and other info, reduces size and protects privacy

Usage Advice

Recommended quality: JPEG 70–85, WebP 60–80, AVIF 45–65
For large images or batches, process in smaller groups to avoid running out of memory
Keep the page in foreground during compression; background tabs may be throttled
Format tips: JPEG for photos, WebP/AVIF for smaller size, source format for transparent assets

Limitations & Compatibility

JPEG doesn't support transparency; transparent areas will be filled with white
Very large images may exhaust memory or be reclaimed by the browser
Colors may shift slightly after compression (color management/ICC differences)
HEIC/HEIF will be converted to PNG first; source format output will be PNG

Session Controls

You can replace, clear, and re-run the current content at any time before exporting the final result.
