| Pricing transparency | 35 / 35 100% free with no account registration, paywalls, or file-count caps; the landing page and workspace clearly disclose upfront that PNG inputs are converted to WebP for maximum compression (Format: PNG → WebP). Dropping our 4,137.9 KB (2048×2048) anchor PNG immediately enabled a free 276.0 KB download (01_landing.png, 02_workspace.png, 03_download.png). | |
| Interaction restraint | 29 / 30 Zero registration prompts, ad overlays, or deceptive redirects; dropping an image immediately displays original size, compressed size, reduction percentage, and a direct download button. | |
