| Measured fixture results | File reduction: 88.37% · Output size: 481.4 KB | File reduction: 9.52% · Output size: 3744 KB |
| Fixture findings | Under the 2048px standard anchor, BIRME's default preset exports a 512x512 native PNG file achieving 27.59 dB PSNR, 0.9755 SSIM, and 88.37% size reduction with pure client-side Canvas/Pica offline processing in 342ms. | Default PNG preserved quality but reduced this fixture by only about 10%; other export formats are available. |
| Original historical observation | BIRME executes purely in local browser Canvas with Pica interpolation, reducing 4.14 MB to 481.4 KB (-88.4%) while preserving PNG format and transparency in 342ms. | At its default Quality = 90% setting while keeping PNG format, TinyWow applies conservative quantization that preserves near-lossless pixel fidelity (PSNR 48.20 dB, SSIM 0.9996) with a modest -9.52% byte reduction; switching the output dropdown to .webp or .avif yields much larger savings. |
| Suitable uses · historical assessment | E-commerce and web operations requiring fast batch resizing and compression while preserving PNG transparency | Users wanting free no-login near-lossless PNG optimization (48.20 dB PSNR) or one-click conversion to WebP/AVIF/JXL |
