Compress JPEG to 200KB

This tool brings JPEG files under 200 KB in your browser — the kind of limit CMS platforms and online marketplaces set on listing and product photos so their pages stay fast. JPEG is the native format of most cameras and phones, so your shots are usually ready to compress as-is.

Because JPEG is lossy, it encodes the picture in 8×8 blocks and drops detail the eye tends to miss. Compress too aggressively and you'll see faint blockiness and halos along sharp edges, and each time you re-save a JPEG it re-encodes and loses a little more quality. 200 KB is generous enough that a single, careful re-encode keeps textures and packaging text looking clean.

The tool lowers JPEG quality first and scales dimensions only if the file is still over budget. It all runs on your device with nothing uploaded, so you can prep a batch of listing photos privately, one at a time.
