Common use cases

How Compress Image keeps your data private
Compression runs via the browser-image-compression library inside your browser's Web Workers — every JPG, PNG, and WebP is re-encoded on your own CPU. A side benefit for privacy: EXIF metadata including GPS coordinates, camera serial numbers, and timestamps is stripped during compression, so photos you share publicly no longer expose where and when they were taken.
How Compress Image compares to alternatives

About Compress Image
Image compression is one of the highest-impact optimizations for both web performance and storage. Xevon Tools' Compress Image tool uses browser-image-compression to shrink JPG, PNG, and WebP files while keeping them visually identical. You can choose a quality level manually or set a target file size and let the tool figure out the right quality for you. Before-and-after sizes are displayed for each image so you can verify the savings. Because everything runs locally in your browser, even private or sensitive photos stay on your device — nothing is ever uploaded. Batch processing lets you optimize an entire folder of images in one pass, making it the fastest way to prep assets for the web, email, or social media. Whether you are a developer optimizing a site's Lighthouse score, a marketer preparing campaign images, or an everyday user trying to fit photos under an email attachment limit, this tool delivers significant size reductions in seconds.
