About Compress Image to 100 KB

Many websites, email providers, and online forms have a 100 KB file size limit for image uploads. This tool compresses your image to fit under 100 KB by iteratively adjusting quality until the target is reached. Everything runs in your browser — your images are never uploaded to any server. The compression algorithm finds the best quality that still fits within the size limit, so you get the best possible image at or under 100 KB.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I need to compress to 100 KB?

Many websites, email providers, and online forms have a 100 KB file size limit for image uploads. Passport applications, visa forms, and government websites often have this restriction.

Is my file uploaded to a server?

No. Transmute processes everything locally in your browser using JavaScript and the Canvas API. Your files never leave your device — there is no server, no upload, no cloud processing.

Will my image look bad at 100 KB?

It depends on the image dimensions. A small image (under 1000px) can look great at 100 KB. For larger images, you may notice some quality loss. The tool finds the best possible quality that fits within the limit.
