Free online image compressor for JPG, PNG and WebP

PictLab helps you compress images online without installing software. Upload an image, choose a quality level, resize it if needed and compare the original file with the compressed preview before downloading.

Smaller images are easier to upload, send by email and publish on websites. They can also help pages load faster, especially when photos are very large or come directly from a phone or camera.

  • Upload a JPG, PNG or WebP image using the button or drag and drop area.
  • Choose the compression quality and output format.
  • Optionally resize the image to 1920px, 1280px or 800px before compression.
  • Preview the compressed result and compare file size reduction.
  • Download the optimized image instantly.
