About Compress Image
Pixenith uses a multi-stage compression pipeline tuned for each codec. image files take a lossless re-encode first; if that fits, you're done with zero quality loss. Otherwise we descend a quality ladder until the output matches your target size.
Upload up to 25 files per batch. The output filename embeds the achieved size (e.g. ``photo-compressed-187KB.jpg``) so you can confirm the result at a glance.

Compress Image — frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know.
Is Compress Image free?
Yes — free within fair-use daily limits. Pro plans lift the cap to 200 compressions / day per format.
Are my files private?
Yes. Encrypted in transit, processed in a sandboxed worker, and deleted within 60 minutes. EXIF and GPS metadata are stripped by default.
How big a file can I upload?
10 MB for guests, 25 MB on the Free plan, up to 500 MB on Business.
Will the output be lossless?
If lossless can hit your target size, yes — we always try that first. Otherwise we descend a quality ladder specific to the codec.
Can I batch-compress multiple files?
Yes. Up to 25 files per request; multi-file requests are delivered as a zip.
