What is an Image Compressor?
An image compressor is a powerful tool that reduces image file sizes while maintaining visual quality through smart compression algorithms. Our online image compressor supports JPEG, PNG, and WebP formats, allowing you to significantly reduce file sizes for faster website loading, easier email sharing, and reduced storage usage. Whether you need to optimize images for web performance, reduce file sizes for faster uploads, or save storage space on your device, our compressor uses canvas-based compression technology to intelligently analyze and compress your images. Perfect for photographers, web developers, bloggers, social media managers, and anyone working with digital images. Unlike destructive compression that makes images look terrible, our tool uses quality-preserving algorithms that maintain visual fidelity while drastically reducing file size.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best quality setting for image compression?
For web use, quality 70-85 offers the best balance between file size and visual quality. Quality 90+ is nearly indistinguishable from original but offers less compression. Quality below 60 shows visible artifacts. For photography portfolios use 85-90, for web thumbnails use 70-75.
Will compressing images reduce their resolution or dimensions?
No. Our compressor maintains the original image dimensions (width and height in pixels). Compression reduces file size by optimizing how the image data is stored, not by reducing resolution. If you need to resize images, do that before compressing.
Can I compress PNG images without losing transparency?
Yes! PNG compression preserves transparency (alpha channel). However, converting PNG to JPEG will remove transparency and replace it with a background color since JPEG does not support transparency. Use PNG or WebP to keep transparent backgrounds.
Are my images uploaded to your servers?
No! All image compression happens entirely in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API and JavaScript. You can verify this by opening browser DevTools (F12) Network tab - you will see no image uploads. Complete privacy.
How much can I compress an image without quality loss?
For JPEG images, you can typically achieve 40-60% file size reduction at quality 85 with no perceptible quality loss to the human eye. PNG images can sometimes be reduced by 70-80% using tools like this while maintaining visual quality.
What is the difference between JPEG, PNG, and WebP?
JPEG is best for photographs and complex images with many colors. PNG is best for graphics with transparency, sharp edges, or text. WebP offers better compression than both JPEG and PNG while supporting transparency, but has less browser compatibility (though most modern browsers support it now).
Can I compress images that are already compressed?
Yes, but with diminishing returns. Re-compressing an already-compressed JPEG at lower quality will reduce file size but may introduce artifacts. If an image is already optimized, further compression may hurt quality more than it saves space.
