A TinyPNG alternative, compared honestly

Arche, TinyPNG and Squoosh all make images smaller for free. They differ in how many files they take, where your images go, how they compress PNG and what paying gets you.

Which one fits your job

Choose Arche

when you want a whole batch of JPEG, PNG and WebP back in the same format and pixel size, with EXIF and GPS data removed and no account. Pro is billed month to month, so you can pay for a busy month only. Arche's free converters, such as PNG to JPG and WebP to PNG, run in your browser without uploading.

Choose TinyPNG

when you mostly compress PNG graphics and want the smallest files: reducing colors to a palette usually saves more on PNG than re-encoding does. It also has a developer API, a WordPress plugin, format conversion and background removal.

Choose Squoosh

when you want to tune one image by hand, compare codecs side by side, or try AVIF and JPEG XL, and the image must never leave your browser.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is Arche affiliated with TinyPNG or Squoosh?

No. Arche is an independent product. TinyPNG is made by Tinify and Squoosh by Google Chrome Labs; we mention them only so you can compare.

Does Arche make PNG files as small as TinyPNG?

Often not. TinyPNG reduces PNG colors to an 8-bit palette, which usually saves more on PNG graphics. Arche keeps the PNG format and pixel size and tells you when a file can't be made smaller. The best test is to try both on a few of your own images.

Which one keeps my images most private?

Squoosh never uploads your image. Arche and TinyPNG both upload images to compress them; Arche deletes uploads and results within 48 hours and never uses them to train models.

Are they free?

All three can be used for free. Arche's free plan takes 20 images of up to 5 MB each per batch without an account, TinyPNG's free web tool takes 20 images of up to 5 MB per session, and Squoosh is free and open source.

Make your next batch smaller.

Free without an account. Same format, same size, smaller files.
