Every other image plugin optimizes after upload — the heavy originals still travel to your server and still fill your disk. Squeezify flips the order: compress, convert, and resize in your browser, then upload only the finished files to your Media Library.

Squeezify runs the same encoders behind squoosh.app — libavif, libwebp, MozJPEG, and Oxipng — as WebAssembly, right in your browser, inside wp-admin.
Processing happens on your machine. Images never touch a third-party service — the only transfer is the final upload to your own site.
Full-size originals never reach your server, and uploads stay under WordPress’s own 2560px limit — so WP never stores a “-scaled” duplicate either.
Ship modern AVIF and WebP at exactly the size your pages need — dramatically smaller files, dramatically better Core Web Vitals.
Queue up to 50 images, tune one, then apply the format and quality to the whole batch in a click.
A live comparison loupe on every image — drag the divider and see exactly what a quality setting costs before you commit.
No usage costs, no monthly credit meter — your browser does the work, so optimizing 5 images costs the same as 5,000.
Click the Squeezify button in your Media Library and a full-screen editor opens over WordPress.
Drag & drop or click to add images — up to 50 per batch.
Adjust format, quality, and size with a live before/after preview.
Send the finished files straight to your Media Library.
Pro turns Squeezify into a full asset-prep workflow: crop hero images, galleries, and cover photos to exact aspect ratios, batch rename the results, and ship optimized files straight into the block editor, ACF fields, or your Media Library.
Open any image already in your Media Library, optimize it, and replace it in place. Same attachment — alt text, captions, and the library entry all survive — and when the file name or format changes, Squeezify rewrites the old links across your posts and pages automatically, resized thumbnails included.
A Squeezify button right on the block — optimize on insert, and the finished uploads drop straight into the block. Galleries keep the full batch workflow.
The same one-click flow on Advanced Custom Fields image and gallery fields — repeater rows included. Values are set through ACF’s own APIs, so everything behaves natively.
Per-image crop with aspect presets, applied before encoding — so you never pay file size for pixels you were going to cut anyway.
One-click recipes for common jobs — hero images, product shots, blog inlines — tuned per format, applicable to one image or the whole queue.
Pattern-based renaming with automatic numbering, plus drag-to-reorder — renumbering follows the new order, so galleries land exactly how you sequenced them.
Closed the tab mid-batch? Your queue and every edit — crops, renames, settings — are waiting when you come back. One click and you’re where you left off.
Limited-time bonus: WordPress Pro includes Squeezify Pro for the web — the full editor at squeezify.app, for the sites you manage that aren’t on WordPress. One license, every platform.
The free plugin is fully functional, forever — Pro layers the editing tools and WordPress integrations on top.

Just want the standalone web app? Squeezify Pro for the web is a one-time $20 — pay once, yours forever. The WordPress plugin is priced yearly because it’s actively maintained against WordPress and ACF updates — and for a limited time it includes Web Pro.
Yes — free and fully functional, forever. No credits, no quotas, no cloud API. Pro adds the batch workflow tools (crop, presets, rename, reordering, session recovery) and the deeper WordPress integrations.
Never. All compression happens in your browser — we don’t have servers that could receive your images. Finished files upload directly to your own WordPress site, and nowhere else.
One license covers the WordPress sites you manage — there are no per-site fees. If tiered plans ever appear later, licenses bought today keep what they have. It’s meant for your own sites (or your team’s) rather than passed around to a crowd of unrelated ones — that’s the one thing we ask.
The plugin keeps working — we don’t break your site. Updates and support stop until you renew. You can cancel or manage billing any time through the billing portal.
Yes. There’s a Squeezify button on Gutenberg Image and Gallery blocks, and on ACF Image and Gallery fields — repeater rows included. (Gallery fields require ACF Pro, as galleries are an ACF Pro feature.)
Yes — for a limited time, a WordPress Pro license also unlocks Squeezify Pro at squeezify.app, with the same key. Handy for the sites you manage that aren’t on WordPress.
If Pro isn’t for you, email hello@squeezify.app within 14 days of purchase. Payments are processed by Stripe; a refund deactivates the license.
WordPress 6.5+ and a modern browser. There are no server requirements at all — encoding happens on your machine, so even modest hosting benefits the most.
