Smart Compression Features
Intelligent Quality
Our algorithm finds the optimal compression settings to reach 200KB while preserving visual quality. The compressor adjusts JPEG quality, color subsampling, and metadata stripping based on the image content.
Private Processing
Your images are processed locally in your browser. Nothing is uploaded to our servers — the platform only sees the final compressed result you choose to upload.
💡 Compressing to 200KB: What to Expect
Social media compression (200KB): Social media platforms re-compress every image you upload. Compressing to their recommended limit beforehand gives you control over where quality is lost. Instagram aggressively compresses images — uploading at exactly their target size with moderate JPEG compression (75-80%) produces the best results.
Platform nuances: Facebook and LinkedIn are more forgiving but still re-compress. TikTok and Twitter favor images that match their display dimensions exactly. Upload as JPEG for photos or PNG for graphics with sharp text. After compressing, crop to the platform's preferred aspect ratio for best presentation.
