About Compress JPG to 100KB.

This tool compresses JPG images to 100 KB or less automatically. Purpose-built for JPG photos that need to pass a 100 KB upload check. Instead of guessing at quality percentages and re-exporting until the file is small enough, the tool searches for the best quality setting that fits the 100 KB budget and, when needed, resizes dimensions intelligently. Everything runs in your browser — the image is never uploaded, so identity documents, application photos, and signatures stay on your device. The result downloads instantly as a JPG that passes 100 KB upload validation.

Frequently asked questions.

How does the tool get the image under 100 KB?

It runs a binary search on JPEG quality, re-encoding the image several times until it finds the highest quality that stays under 100 KB. If even the lowest reasonable quality is too big, it scales the dimensions down slightly and tries again — the same process you would do by hand, automated.

Will my image lose quality?

Some quality loss is unavoidable when targeting a fixed size — that is what compression is. The tool always picks the highest quality that fits under 100 KB, so you lose as little as possible.

Is my photo uploaded to a server?

No. Compression happens entirely in your browser using the HTML5 canvas API. Your photo never leaves your device, which makes this safe for passport photos, ID documents, and signatures.

What format is the output?

The compressed image is delivered as a JPG, which is the format virtually all upload forms with size limits expect. Transparent areas of PNGs are flattened onto a white background.
