How Image Compression Works
Our tool uses two types of compression:
Lossy compression (JPEG/WebP): Removes some imperceptible visual data to achieve significant size reduction (typically 60-80%). The compression level controls the trade-off between quality and size.
Lossless compression (PNG): Removes redundant data without any quality loss. Useful for logos, screenshots, and graphics with transparency.
Supported Formats
JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF β all common image formats are supported.
Tips for Best Optimization
- For photos: JPEG at 80% quality gives excellent visual quality at 50-70% smaller size.
- For logos and graphics: PNG lossless compression preserves sharp edges and text.
- For web use: WebP format provides the best compression ratio with full browser support.
- Batch multiple images by uploading several files at once.
