Adaptive quality

Per-image quality settings, no human involved

Smart to high compression settings comparison

Our adaptive quality algorithms analyze the image, selecting the optimal compression level just before visual artifacts appear. Combined with automatic format selection, it delivers the best compression-to-quality ratio on the market.

Smart resize

Smart background stretching example

Extreme resize ratios won’t affect objects. The Smart CDN algorithm will detect the background and stretch it accordingly.

Smart crop

Keep what matters in the frame

Content-aware cropping with detection of faces example

Make any image fit your layout without losing meaningful parts. Smart CDN detects faces, objects, and corners to set the cropping frame.

“In-house file infrastructure? No thank you. With Uploadcare, we save 40 hours of per week and decrease the total cost of ownership (TCO) on infrastructure development. More to ask?”

“For us to build the functionality we use, it would probably take a team of 3 or 4 developers several months. Using Uploadcare, we've basically taken a shortcut. We haven't had to build any uploading or image-processing infrastructure ourselves, so we've saved a bunch of dev work. This part of our software is just handled. It's not something we need to worry about.”

“Before using Uploadcare, I just did all the image processing myself with scripts. It was a nightmare. It’s a lot more work, and it’s not interesting work.”
