Squoosh Alternative for Batch Image Compression (Free, No Upload)
Squoosh compresses one image at a time and its batch CLI is deprecated. Compare it with a free browser compressor that batch-compresses JPG, PNG and WebP into one ZIP — no upload.
Short answer
Squoosh is excellent and, like our tool, compresses images locally in your browser. Its web app works on one image at a time. If you need to compress a whole set of photos and download them as one ZIP, use our batch image compressor; for squeezing a single image with fine codec control, use Squoosh.
Squoosh is Google Chrome Labs' open-source image compressor, and it is one of the best tools of its kind: a side-by-side preview, modern codecs and dozens of encoder settings. People looking for a "Squoosh alternative" usually want one thing it does not do — batch compression — since the Squoosh command-line tool that used to handle batches is no longer maintained. Here is an honest comparison. (Squoosh details are from its GitHub repository and npm page, checked October 2026.)
