Good to know

How it gets under 100KB

Each image is saved as JPG or WebP at the highest quality that fits under 100KB. When that would mean a blocky picture, Arche scales the image down instead, a step at a time, and keeps the quality at 60 or above: a slightly smaller image is far easier to read than a blurry one. Every result shows its file size, quality and pixel size.

Where 100KB limits come up

Upload forms for jobs, schools, banks and online profiles often stop at 100 KB, and so do some forums and email signatures. At 100 KB a photo can usually stay around 1,000 pixels wide with clean detail, plenty for an ID or profile picture on screen.

Photo and signature sizes for common forms

Pick one of these under Form preset and Arche sets the size range, pixels and DPI for you. The figures come from each body's published upload instructions, checked in November 2026. They can change between notifications, so check yours before you upload.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Something else? Write to support@niamori.ai.

Will the file be exactly 100KB?

It will be just under 100KB, usually within a few percent. Upload forms check that a file is not larger than the limit, so slightly under is what you want. Arche counts 1 KB as 1,000 bytes, so the file also passes forms that count 1 KB as 1,024 bytes.

Can I keep the same width and height?

Yes: turn off Allow smaller dimensions. Arche then only lowers the quality, and tells you if an image can't get under 100KB at its current size. If a form also asks for exact pixel dimensions, enter them under Form requirements.

What if the form also has a minimum size?

Open Form requirements and fill in the minimum, or pick your form under Form preset. Arche keeps each file between the two sizes and, if a file would come out too small, pads it up without changing the picture.

Are my images uploaded?

No. The conversion runs inside your browser, so your images stay on your device. Files are only uploaded if you choose to optimize them with Arche, and those are deleted within 48 hours.

What is Arche?

Arche makes JPEG, PNG and WebP images smaller without changing their format or pixel size, and strips metadata such as EXIF location. It is free without an account; Pro raises the batch limits.

Need smaller files, not just a new format?

Arche recompresses JPEG, PNG and WebP in the same format and size. Free without an account; files are deleted within 48 hours.
