Private browser compression

Compress an image to a target size

Choose a KB ceiling and keep the best measured result below it instead of repeatedly guessing at a quality percentage.

Target-size compressor

The browser tests quality and dimensions, then keeps the best result it can produce at or below your limit.

Measured output instead of a rough estimate

File size changes with texture, dimensions, format, and browser encoder behavior. PixelTransform measures candidate files instead of treating a quality percentage as a promised KB result.

The search starts with quality and reduces dimensions only when the requested limit cannot be reached responsibly. Keep a full-resolution master for later exports.

How to reach a KB limit

  1. 1

    Choose an image

    Load the best JPG, PNG, WebP, or AVIF source from this device.

  2. 2

    Enter the maximum KB

    Set a ceiling slightly below the destination's published limit and choose JPEG or WebP.

  3. 3

    Review and download

    Check measured size, dimensions, format, and visible quality before saving.

Useful for strict upload limits

Application forms

Prepare a photo below a fixed limit without repeated manual exports.

Marketplace listings

Reduce listing images while keeping product details readable.

Email attachments

Create a predictable smaller copy while retaining the original master.

Know before you compress

A target is a ceiling, not a guarantee of an exact byte match.

  • Very small targets may require lower dimensions or visible compression.
  • The current output choices are JPEG and WebP; transparency is flattened for JPEG.
  • Different browsers may produce slightly different encoded sizes from the same source.

Target-size compression questions

Does the image upload to PixelTransform?

No. Target-size compression runs in the browser on this device.

Why did the dimensions change?

The requested limit could not be reached at a useful quality, so proportional resizing was needed.

Should I target the exact website limit?

Use a small margin below it because platforms may count KB differently or modify the file during upload.
