Compress an image with adjustable quality

For web teams speeding up a page, meeting an upload limit or preparing a collection of visual assets.

Shrink your image with an adjustable quality level and get a lighter file while keeping the appearance suitable for its intended use.

How to use

Load a PNG, JPEG or WebP image up to 20 MB to reduce its file size.
Set the quality level to define the balance between sharpness and final weight.
Run the processing action to create a compressed version of the picture.
Compare the visual result and the new file weight against the original before deciding.
Download the lighter version if it works, or clear the selection to try another setting.

Example

For a photo planned for a blog post, lower the quality gradually and compare the resulting weight with the visible rendering. A moderate value often shrinks the file without a screen-visible difference, but fine details and text can suffer if you go too low.

Limits and formats

Lossy compression can introduce artifacts, so check fine details and edges in the preview.
This page does not resize the image; it focuses on the quality setting of the output file.
The final weight depends on the image content and the selected value, not only on the number shown.

Where processing happens

Compression takes place in your browser. The image is read from your device, re-encoded according to the chosen quality level, and then offered for download. No upload is required, and the original file is not retained by the tool after processing.

Frequently asked questions

Is a quality setting of 75 percent right for every image?

No, it is only a useful starting point. The best value depends on the subject and purpose; a highly detailed photo may need a higher setting, while a simple graphic can sometimes handle stronger compression.

Does compression also reduce the dimensions?

This page describes a quality control, not a resize step. The pixel dimensions stay those of the loaded file unless the tool clearly shows another option at the time of processing.

How can I tell whether the result is good enough?

View the preview at full size and zoom into faces, text and edges. Then download the file and compare its weight with the original to decide whether the trade-off works for you.
