Max width (px)

0 = keep original size

Compression runs 100% via Canvas API in your browser — your image is NOT uploaded. Great for shrinking images for web/blog/social while keeping quality.

When to compress images

Web/Blog: 5MB hero image → slow load, wasted bandwidth → compress to 200-500KB.
Social media: Facebook/IG have upload limits — resize first.
Email attachments: Gmail caps at 25MB — compress so you can attach more images per email.
Mobile SEO: Lighthouse penalises images > 100KB — compress to pass Core Web Vitals.
Storage: cloud Drive/Dropbox running out — compress old images to keep more.

Which format?

WebP ⭐: modern format, ~30% smaller than JPG at the same quality. All modern browsers support it. Top recommendation for the web.
JPEG: photographs, portraits, landscapes. Do NOT use for icons or screenshots with text — text becomes mushy from artifacts.
PNG: images with transparent backgrounds, UI screenshots with text. Lossless — no artifacts.
AVIF (not in this tool yet): even smaller than WebP, but slow to encode.

Quality vs Size

Quality slider 0-100% — only applies to JPG/WebP (PNG is always lossless). Rule of thumb:

90-100%: barely compressed — use when preserving detail matters (posters, print).
75-85% ⭐: sweet spot — visually indistinguishable from the original, 50-70% smaller.
60-75%: web heroes, social — still looks great.
40-60%: thumbnails, previews — minor visible loss is OK.
<40%: visible artifacts — only use if size matters a lot.

Privacy

The tool uses HTMLCanvasElement.toBlob() — runs 100% in your browser. Images are NOT sent to SoTayAI or any other server. Works offline. Safe for sensitive images.
