Keep originals separately when you need a full-resolution source for future edits.
FAQ
Online image optimizer questions
Is this image optimizer online or local?
It opens online in your browser, but the image processing runs locally so files do not need to be uploaded.
Can I compress images without installing software?
Yes. You can optimize images directly in the browser without a desktop editor or command-line setup.
Which image format should I export for web delivery?
WebP is often a good first choice for web delivery, while JPEG works well for photos and PNG is useful when transparency matters.
Can this online optimizer show quality changes?
Yes. The workflow is built around previewing quality and file-size tradeoffs before export.
