Smart compression

Per-image quality settings, no human involved

Our AI analyzes an image and adds the correct compression level just before visual artifacts appear. Combine it with auto format selection, and you’ve got 
the best compression to quality ratio on the market.

50–60% smaller file size compared to the most popular open source solutions
