Squoosh

Squoosh is a browser-based image optimization tool that helps users reduce image file sizes while maintaining visual quality. It allows you to open or drop an image into the tool, compare the original with compressed versions, and explore how different codecs affect the result. Once you are satisfied, you can save the optimized image directly.

Squoosh is designed to make image compression straightforward, with a simple workflow for inspecting differences and adjusting settings. Users can also fine-tune those settings to seek smaller files when needed. By reducing image size, Squoosh can help make images quicker to load.

The tool performs its work locally in the browser, so images do not leave the user’s device, an approach intended to address privacy concerns. Squoosh also points users to its source on GitHub. Overall, it offers a practical way to compress and compare images without requiring users to send their files to an online processing service
