Squish is a browser-based batch image compression tool that uses WebAssembly codecs to compress and convert images entirely client-side. It supports AVIF, JPEG, JPEG XL, PNG, and WebP with quality adjustment, drag-and-drop, and no server uploads.

Use cases

• compress a batch of images without uploading them to a server
• convert PNG photos to WebP or AVIF for the web
• reduce image file sizes before uploading to a website
• optimize images locally for privacy
• batch resize quality of screenshots for documentation

When to choose

• you need client-side image compression with no uploads
• you want modern codecs like AVIF and JPEG XL in the browser
• you need batch processing with a simple drag-and-drop UI

When to avoid

• you need CLI or server-side automated compression pipelines
• you need extremely large-scale or scripted batch workflows
• you need editing features beyond compression and format conversion
