Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about the free online compression analyzer.

Choose the original as the first file and the export as the second, and the tool reports the exact byte difference and percentage.
It is the file size in bits divided by the pixel count, so a lower figure means the image is compressed harder.
It lets you compare compression fairly even when the two images have different dimensions.
A typical photo saved at quality 80 is roughly ten times smaller than the raw pixel data it started from.
No. Both files are measured exactly as they are, so the figures reflect the real stored data.
No. Both files are read in memory in your browser and nothing is transmitted.
Re-saving an already compressed photo, or exporting at a higher quality, often produces a larger file.
Not in one pass, but you can load a new pair at any time to compare another set of images.
Yes. The analyzer is fully responsive and works in the browser on phones, tablets and desktops.
