Why people switch from TinyPNG
More than just compression
TinyPNG does one thing: compress PNG, JPG, and WEBP files. If you need to also resize, convert formats, remove a background, merge a PDF, format JSON, or decode a JWT, you need other tools. Filagram has 48 tools in one place.
Your files stay private
TinyPNG uploads your images to its servers for processing. Filagram runs compression entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your images never leave your machine.
No monthly limit
TinyPNG's free tier caps you at 500 compressions per month. If you process images regularly, that runs out. Filagram's free tier has no monthly compression limit.
Higher free file size limit
TinyPNG limits individual files to 5 MB on the free tier. Filagram allows up to 25 MB on the free tier, which covers most real-world photos without upgrading.
When TinyPNG still makes sense
TinyPNG has a developer API that lets you integrate compression into a build pipeline or CMS. If you're automating compression at scale via an API, TinyPNG's developer offering is purpose-built for that. Filagram is focused on browser-based use and does not offer an API.
