| Measured fixture results | File reduction: 54.72% · Output size: 1873.8 KB | File reduction: 56.31% · Output size: 1807.8 KB |
| Fixture findings | Sample testing confirms: under default Balanced mode, it preserves 2048x2048 resolution and PNG format with smooth micro-edges, achieving 54.7% compression and a 91.2 overall benchmark rating. | Local processing reduced this fixture by about 56% with adjustable quantisation; useful if you want parameter control. |
| Original historical observation | Image SEO for AI compresses images and strips metadata entirely inside browser Canvas; under default Balanced mode it reduces the 4.14 MB anchor by 54.7% to 1.87 MB with SSIM of 0.9975, maintaining great visual fidelity. | RedKetchup is one of the few tools that lets users manually pick 8-bit quantization dithering algorithms (Atkinson) and inspect pixels side-by-side in a full-screen viewer: it shrinks our 4.14 MB anchor PNG by 56.31% to 1.77 MB locally at PSNR=39.35 dB and SSIM=0.9984 (02_workspace.png, 03_download.png). |
| Suitable uses · historical assessment | E-commerce sellers and webmasters needing fast, free large-image compression preserving transparency and 2048px resolution | Developers and UI designers who want fine-grained control over PNG color depth (8/24/32-bit) and dithering algorithms with 100% local browser privacy |
