An online image compressor and converter for AVIF, JPEG XL, WebP, PNG and JPEG, from Tinify, with a developer API, WordPress and Figma plugins and an image CDN. Anyfile is a free alternative for many of the same jobs: it opens, edits and converts files in your browser, and nothing is uploaded.

When TinyPNG is the better choice
TinyPNG is the better choice if you want an API or plugins (WordPress, Figma, an image CDN) to compress images automatically as part of a website or workflow, or its paid plans for unlimited compressions and files up to 150 MB. Anyfile suits one-off compressing and converting where the picture should stay on your device.
