## Summary

Compress JPG, PNG and WebP images online, compare output size and quality, and download smaller files with browser-first processing.

## User Intent

Use this tool when you need a smaller image file for a website, upload form, CMS or sharing workflow without automatically changing the image dimensions.

## Supported Inputs

- Formats: image/jpeg, image/png, image/webp
- Upload label: Choose images to compress
- Defaults: {"quality":0.8,"maxSizeMB":1}

## Workflow

1. Upload the images: Add one or more supported JPG, PNG or WebP files.
2. Set quality or a target size: Choose the compression settings based on the file-size limit and visual quality you need.
3. Compare and download: Review the preview and reported output size, then download the result that meets your requirements.

## Best For

- Reducing JPG, PNG or WebP file size for uploads and web delivery.
- Comparing output size against visual quality before download.
- Batch-processing supported images with the same compression settings.

## Limits

- Aggressive lossy compression can introduce visible artifacts.
- Very large or detailed images may need smaller pixel dimensions to reach a strict file-size target.

## Visible FAQ

- Does image compression change image dimensions? Not necessarily. Compression can reduce file size while keeping the same width and height. Resizing is a separate operation that changes pixel dimensions.
