About This Tool

Ten kilobytes is about as small as an image gets - the territory of favicons, inline icons, email signatures, and thumbnails that need to load instantly. This tool compresses JPG and PNG images to 10KB or less while keeping edges clean enough for small display sizes, and it does it entirely in your browser with a live size preview. If your site or app needs a tiny asset, this is the fastest route to it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What can you actually use a 10KB image for?

Favicons, small icons, badges, email signature logos, and thumbnail previews. At display sizes under 100 pixels, a well-compressed 10KB image looks essentially identical to the original.

Why is my photo refusing to go under 10KB?

Photographs with lots of detail and noise do not compress that small. Reduce the pixel dimensions first or use a flat-color graphic; simple graphics reach 10KB easily.
