Why compress to 10 KB?

Many online application and exam portals cap the photo or document file size — and a 10 KB limit is one of the common requirements. A picture straight from your phone is far larger than that, so it gets rejected at upload. This page presets the compressor to 10 KB, so you just upload your image and download a version that fits.

The compression runs in your browser using a smart quality search, keeping your photo as sharp as possible while landing at or under 10 KB. Your file is never uploaded.

Frequently asked questions

How do I compress an image to 10 KB?
Upload your photo above, make sure the target is set to 10 KB, and click Compress. The tool reduces the quality just enough to bring the file at or under 10 KB, then lets you download it.
Will the image still be clear at 10 KB?
Yes, in most cases. The tool keeps the highest quality possible while meeting the 10 KB limit. Smaller targets naturally reduce quality more, but the result stays fine for passport-style photos and document uploads.
Is my image uploaded to a server?
No. The compression happens entirely in your browser, so your file never leaves your device.
Is it free?
Yes — completely free, no signup, no watermark.
