Drop your images and each one comes back at or below 200 KB, at the best quality that fits. Nothing is sent anywhere unless you ask for it.

Or click to choose them. Several at once is fine, and you can drop more later.
Everything re-runs as you change it
JPEG cannot be transparent, so whatever was see-through gets this colour.

More than one image comes back as a single .zip.

An encoder takes a quality and answers with a size, never the other way round. So the page tries a quality, looks at the result and halves what is left to search, about nine times per image. Each row says which quality it settled on.
A large photo pushed towards a small target runs out of quality before it runs out of pixels. Below 30% the search stops lowering quality and starts shrinking the picture instead, which looks better at the same size. A row that still could not get there says so rather than pretending.
A good size for images on a website or in a marketplace listing: large enough to look sharp on a laptop screen, small enough to load quickly on a phone.
For web use, a longest edge of 1600 pixels at 200 KB looks sharp on most screens.
For a large photo, yes. Smaller images such as thumbnails should be well below that.
WebP gives the best quality for the size and works in every current browser. Choose JPG where an upload form insists on it.
No. Every attempt at the target size is encoded by your own browser, so the picture never leaves your device.
