| Measured fixture results | File reduction: 93.33% · Output size: 276 KB | File reduction: 9.52% · Output size: 3744 KB |
| Fixture findings | Default Balanced mode converts the 4,137.9 KB anchor to a 276.0 KB WebP (-93.33%) with 37.75 dB PSNR and 0.9977 SSIM, keeping text and edges crisp. | Default PNG preserved quality but reduced this fixture by only about 10%; other export formats are available. |
| Original historical observation | Running 100% locally in the browser (0.0s upload, 0.54s end-to-end), QuickImageKit compressed our 4,137.9 KB (2048×2048) anchor PNG into a 276.0 KB WebP (-93.33%) at 37.75 dB PSNR and 0.9977 SSIM with sharp text and edges (02_workspace.png, 03_download.png). | 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 | Privacy-conscious web developers and creators who want zero cloud upload and >90% size reduction into modern WebP format | Users wanting free no-login near-lossless PNG optimization (48.20 dB PSNR) or one-click conversion to WebP/AVIF/JXL |
