HyperCompress (Zero-UI Image Optimizer)

A blazing-fast, privacy-first image optimizer built with Rust. Simply drag and drop your files (or entire folders) to reduce file size by up to 90% without visible quality loss. No UI clutter, no monthly fees, and 100% offline.

Stop Wasting Time with Web Converters.

Are you still uploading your assets to "TinyPNG" or "Squoosh" one by one? Waiting for uploads, worrying about privacy, and downloading zip files manually?

It's time for an upgrade.

HyperCompress is a Zero-UI tool designed for designers, developers, and photographers who value their time. It lives on your desktop and does one thing perfectly: it makes your images smaller, faster, and cleaner.

Powered by a native Rust engine, it utilizes all your CPU cores to process thousands of images in seconds. It uses Perceptual SSIM algorithms to determine the absolute lowest file size that human eyes cannot distinguish from the original.

Just drag your folder. We handle the rest.

✅ Zero-UI Workflow No complex settings. Just a minimal drop zone. Drag your files, see the magic happen, and get back to work.

✅ Psychovisual Quality Engine Instead of a fixed percentage, HyperCompress uses SSIM (Structural Similarity Index) to analyze each image. It automatically finds the sweet spot where file size is minimized without compromising visual quality.

✅ 100% Privacy & Offline Your photos never leave your device. Perfect for NDA projects, personal photos, and sensitive data. No API keys, no cloud uploads.

✅ Smart Format Detection Automatically detects the best format for your image. Converts photos to AVIF, screenshots to WebP, and logos to optimized PNG intelligently.

✅ Directory Mirroring Drag a complex folder structure with 10,000 nested images? No problem. HyperCompress recreates the exact folder structure in the output, saving you hours of reorganization.

✅ Metadata Scrubber Automatically removes invisible bloat like GPS location, camera serial numbers, and thumbnail data for privacy and smaller file sizes.

$5+ (Pay what you want) This tool saves you hours of work. If you use it commercially, buying me a coffee ☕️ ($10+) is greatly appreciated!


HyperCompress Settings Description

1. Process Mode

Determines how the application processes and optimizes your images.

• Web Ready (Default)
  • Description: Intelligently converts images to modern, web-optimized formats (WebP or AVIF) with a quality setting equivalent to 85.
  • Best for: General website usage where a balance of high quality and small file size is required.
• Archive
  • Description: Performs lossless optimization on PNG and JPEG files by removing metadata and optimizing Huffman coding tables, without changing the file format or visible quality.
  • Best for: Archiving images where preserving the exact original pixel data is critical (e.g., source assets, backups).
• Original
  • Description: Retains the original file format (keeping the same extension) but applies aggressive compression similar to the "Web Ready" mode to significantly reduce file size.
  • Best for: Situations where you need to reduce file size but must maintain specific file formats (e.g., legacy systems requiring JPEGs).
• App Dev
  • Description: Automatically generates standard retina variants (@2x and @3x) alongside the optimized image in a single pass.
  • Best for: Mobile application development workflows (iOS/Android) ensuring all necessary asset densities are created.

2. Suffix Settings

Controls how the processed files are named and saved.

• Add

  _min

  (Default)
  
  • Description: Saves the optimized file as a new file, appending

    _min

    to the original filename (e.g.,

    photo.jpg

    →

    photo_min.webp

    ). The original file remains untouched.
  • Best for: Safety; allows you to compare the result with the original before replacement.
• Overwrite
  • Description: Directly overwrites the original file with the optimized version.
  • Best for: Quick batch processing when you do not need to keep the uncompressed originals. Use with caution.
