Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Reka, a web designer and developer at The WOW Studio. I built Tinify because I was tired of the same old story: upload your image to some server, hit a 5MB limit, then get asked to pay. So I made something different: 🔒 Your images never leave your device — everything runs in the browser 📁 25MB per file (not the usual 5MB cap) 📦 20 images at once, no "upgrade to continue" popups 💸 Actually free — no hidden paywalls, no "buy credits" We're keeping it free for now because we want as many people as possible to try it. Eventually we'll introduce a one-time lifetime payment (no subscriptions!) but even then, the free tier stays generous. No BS, that's our promise. Built for designers, devs, and e-commerce folks who deal with images daily. Would love your feedback — what features would make this even better for you?

Client-side vs server-side image compression — why I chose the browser

When I started building Tinify, the first big architectural decision was: should image compression happen on a server or in the user's browser?

Most tools (TinyPNG, Compressor.io, etc.) upload your images to a server, compress them there, and send them back. It works, and server-side processing can use more advanced algorithms.

I went the other way 100% client-side processing using the Canvas API and browser-native encoding.

Here's why:

Why I built Tinify — and why your images deserve better

Hey everyone

I'm Reka, a web designer and developer running The WOW Studio. I work mostly with Shopify and Webflow stores, so I deal with product images all day, every day.

Here's what kept frustrating me:

Every image optimizer out there follows the same playbook let you compress a few images for free, cap the file size at 5MB, then push you toward a subscription. I get it, businesses need revenue. But it always felt wrong that something as basic as image compression was locked behind monthly fees.

Quick question — what image format do you usually export/save to for the web?

Curious about everyone's workflow here.

When you're optimizing images for websites, landing pages, or e-commerce what's your go-to output format?

WebP smaller files, great browser support now
JPG the reliable classic
PNG when you need transparency
AVIF the new kid on the block
Something else?

I've been building Tinify (launching tomorrow!) and made the deliberate choice to output WebP and JPG skipping PNG entirely because WebP handles transparency AND compresses way better.
