About the Image Compressor

This tool compresses and optionally resizes an image entirely inside your browser using the Canvas API. It draws the image onto a canvas at your chosen dimensions, then re-encodes it as JPEG, WebP, or PNG at your chosen quality, so you can shrink file sizes for faster page loads or easier sharing without uploading anything.

Features

JPEG, WebP, or PNG output

Choose the format that best balances quality and file size for your image.

Adjustable quality

Fine-tune the compression level and see the resulting file size update live.

Optional resizing

Cap the maximum width to shrink large photos while keeping their aspect ratio.

Before/after comparison

See the original and compressed image side by side with exact file sizes.

100% client-side

Your image is processed locally and is never uploaded to a server.

Download or copy

Save the compressed image as a file, or copy it straight to your clipboard.

How It Works

  1. Choose or drag in an image file.
  2. Pick an output format: JPEG, WebP, or PNG.
  3. Adjust the quality slider, and optionally cap the max width to resize.
  4. Compare the original and compressed file sizes side by side.
  5. Download the compressed image or copy it to your clipboard.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my image uploaded to a server?

No. This tool reads the image file locally and compresses it using the browser's built-in Canvas API. The image is never uploaded anywhere.

Which output format should I choose?

WebP usually gives the smallest file size at a given quality and is supported by all modern browsers. JPEG is the safest universal choice for photos. PNG is lossless and best for images with transparency or sharp text, but produces larger files.

Why is the quality slider disabled for PNG?

PNG is a lossless format, so there is no quality setting to adjust. To reduce a PNG's file size, use the resize option or switch to JPEG or WebP instead.

Will resizing reduce quality?

Resizing to a smaller width reduces the total number of pixels, which lowers file size. It does not blur the image, though very large reductions in size will naturally lose fine detail.

Is there a file size limit?

There is no hard limit set by this tool, but very large images depend on your browser's available memory and may take longer to process.

Can I compress multiple images at once?

This tool processes one image at a time so you can review the before-and-after comparison clearly. Choose a new image at any point to start over.
