TinyPNG alternative

Free TinyPNG Alternative — No Uploads

Quick answer: Toolars Image Compressor does the same job — reducing PNG, JPEG, and WebP file size — without the upload. Compression runs locally in your browser, accepts batches of up to 12 files, and shows exact before-and-after byte counts. Pair it with the Image Resizer and Format Converter for the full TinyPNG-plus workflow.

TinyPNG is a long-running online image compressor for PNG, JPEG, and WebP files. It works well, but it is a cloud service at its core: you upload each image to TinyPNG's servers, which compress it and hand it back. Free usage is limited to a small number of images at a time, and larger or automated workflows are pointed at a paid API or subscription.

    Use the quality slider and compare the exact before-and-after byte sizes shown per file.

  4. Download the smaller files

    Save images individually or as a ZIP, then resize or convert further if needed.

The Toolars tools

Toolars alternatives to TinyPNG

Image Compressor

Choose a target size or encoding quality for JPEG/WebP. Process locally, keep dimensions, check bytes, and download. A smaller file is not guaranteed.

Open tool — Image Compressor

Image Resizer

Resize local PNG, JPEG, WebP, SVG or GIF images to an exact size with an optional aspect-ratio lock. PNG / JPEG / WebP / SVG / GIF. GIF input exports the first frame only; animation is not retained.

Open tool — Image Resizer

Image Format Converter

Convert HEIC/HEIF, AVIF, GIF, PNG, JPEG, or WebP to PNG, JPEG, or WebP locally. Choose the output format, quality and flattening color, then compare actual file sizes.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a free TinyPNG alternative that doesn't upload my files?
Yes. The Toolars Image Compressor is free, runs entirely in your browser, and never uploads your images. It accepts batches of up to 12 PNG, JPEG, or WebP files, shows exact byte savings per file, and has no session limit — repeat batches as long as you like.
Does Toolars have daily limits like TinyPNG?
No. TinyPNG caps how many images you can process freely in a session; Toolars has no daily counter. Compression runs on your own device, so batch after batch costs you nothing and hits no ceiling.
Is TinyPNG safe for confidential documents?
TinyPNG's model requires sending each image to its servers, which is a real consideration for unpublished product shots, client photos, or ID scans. Toolars compresses on your device, so the image never leaves your machine and no retention policy applies because there is no server-side copy at all.
Will files processed in the browser match TinyPNG's output quality?
Toolars shows the exact before-and-after file size for every image and lets you tune the quality setting, so you can judge the trade-off yourself. For web publishing and attachments, local re-encoding to WebP or quality-adjusted JPEG usually matches what a cloud compressor delivers for the same settings.
Can I process multiple files at once like in TinyPNG?
Yes — up to 12 images per batch in the Image Compressor, with per-file results and ZIP download. There is no cap on the number of batches, unlike the free tier of upload-based compressors.
