What Is Image Compression?
Image compression is the process of reducing the file size of digital images while preserving acceptable visual quality. There are two main approaches: lossy compression (JPEG, WebP, AVIF) removes some image data that the human eye barely notices, achieving significant size reductions of 50-80%. Lossless compression (PNG with OxiPNG) rearranges data more efficiently without any quality loss. Convertilo uses WebAssembly-powered codecs β MozJPEG, libwebp, libavif, imagequant, and SVGO β to deliver professional-grade compression directly in your browser, with no server uploads required.
Image Format Comparison
Each image format has unique strengths. Choose the right format based on your needs:
| Format | Best For | Transparency | Animation | Compression | Browser Support |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| JPEG | Photographs, complex images | No | No | Lossy (up to 53%) | Universal |
| PNG | Graphics, screenshots, logos | Yes | No | Lossless/Lossy (up to 75%) | Universal |
| WebP | Web images, all-purpose | Yes | Yes | Both lossy and lossless | 95%+ browsers |
| AVIF | Maximum compression, modern web | Yes | Yes | Best ratio (up to 59%) | 90%+ browsers |
| GIF | Simple animations, memes | Limited (1-bit) | Yes | Lossy (up to 75%) | Universal |
| SVG | Icons, logos, vector graphics | Yes | CSS/JS | XML optimization (42%) | Universal |
Technology Behind Our Image Tools
Convertilo uses cutting-edge WebAssembly (WASM) technology to bring professional image processing directly to your browser. Instead of uploading files to a server, we run industry-standard codecs locally on your device:
All codecs are compiled to WebAssembly and run entirely in your browser β your images never leave your device.

Frequently Asked Questions About Compression
How much can file size be reduced without quality loss?
Compression level depends on format and image content. Typically: JPG - up to 90%, PNG - up to 70%, WebP - up to 50%, while maintaining acceptable visual quality.
What image formats are supported for compression?
Our compressor supports all popular formats: JPG/JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF (including animated), and SVG. Each format is optimized using specific algorithms.
Is it safe to upload images to the site?
Absolutely safe. All processing happens locally in your browser. Images are never uploaded to our servers and are automatically deleted after compression.
How fast is the compression process?
Compression is instant since all processing happens in your browser. No upload time required - just select files and get results immediately.
