1. Upload Your Image
Drag and drop any JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, GIF, or BMP file into the drop zone, or click to browse your files. Supports images up to 50MB with full EXIF orientation support.
Free, fast, and completely private. Drop in any JPG, PNG, WebP, or AVIF photo and compress it to exactly 350KB right in your browser — no uploads, no servers, no watermark.
350KB is aimed at photography-heavy product pages and design showcases, where fine texture, fabric weave, or packaging text needs to stay legible even after compression.
Published specifications from recruitment and government portals whose accepted range includes 350KB. Always confirm against your specific exam's current notification before submitting.
| Portal / Exam | Document | Accepted Size | Format | Dimensions |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Recruitment portals (general) | Certificate/marksheet scan | 200–500 KB typical | PDF/JPEG | Varies |
| Detail-heavy product photography | Product image | 300–400 KB typical | JPG/WebP | Varies |
| Photography portfolios | Showcase image | 300–450 KB typical | JPG/WebP | Varies |
Choose your exact target file size and compress images with precision. Our intelligent algorithm optimizes quality and dimensions automatically.
Four simple steps to compress your images without compromising privacy. All processing happens locally in your browser.
Drag and drop any JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, GIF, or BMP file into the drop zone, or click to browse your files. Supports images up to 50MB with full EXIF orientation support.
Select your desired output size from 20KB to 500KB. Our intelligent binary search algorithm automatically adjusts quality and dimensions to reach your target precisely.
Click the Compress button. Our binary search quality optimization finds the best quality setting for your target size in milliseconds, right in your browser. No uploads required.
Preview the before and after results, then download your compressed image instantly. Compare file sizes, dimensions, compression percentage, and output format at a glance.
Our compressor works with all major image formats and intelligently selects the best output format for your needs.
The most common photo format. Excellent compression for photographs with rich colors. Our tool optimizes quality settings to reach your target size while preserving visual fidelity.
Lossless format with full transparency support. Ideal for screenshots, graphics, logos, and images with text. We preserve transparency when compressing PNG files automatically.
Modern format from Google offering superior compression. WebP typically produces files 25-35% smaller than JPEG at equivalent quality. We auto-convert when your browser supports it.
The next-generation format with the best compression ratios. AVIF can reduce file sizes by 50% compared to JPEG. Automatically used for very small target sizes when your browser supports it.
Unlike most online image compressors, we never upload your images to a server. All compression happens locally in your browser.
Every image you compress using Compress To KB is processed entirely within your web browser using JavaScript and the HTML5 Canvas API. This means your images are never sent over the internet, never stored on any remote server, and cannot be accessed by us or any third party. Compressed images exist only in your browser's memory and are discarded when you close the page.
This makes Compress To KB ideal for compressing sensitive photos, confidential documents, or any image you prefer to keep private. Your data stays on your device, exactly where it belongs. Once the page is loaded, you can even compress images without an internet connection.

The difference between the two approaches, and how to pick the right one for your image.
Matching target sizes to thumbnails, main images and zoom views across a catalog.
No single major exam cites exactly 350KB as a hard limit — it sits in the broad 200–500KB range that many recruitment portals use for certificate and document uploads rather than photos/signatures. If your exam states an exact number, match that instead.
Certificates and marksheets often contain small printed text that needs to stay legible after compression. 350KB preserves considerably more text sharpness than a 100–150KB target, which matters for documents that get manually verified.
For a single supporting image, 350KB is on the heavier side but still reasonable for a hero image or a detailed product photo. For thumbnails or multiple images per page, a smaller tier (100–200KB) will keep the page feeling faster.
Not if the original scan is reasonably sharp. Our tool prioritizes reducing quality gradually before touching dimensions, which tends to preserve text edges better than aggressive single-pass compression.
Our tool treats 1KB as 1,024 bytes (the binary definition computers actually use), so choosing 350KB targets a file of at most 358,400 bytes. A small number of strict portals count 1KB as exactly 1,000 bytes instead; in that rare case, aim slightly under 350KB to be safe.
At 350KB, expect quality that is high, suitable even for close inspection of scanned text on a certificate. Our tool always reduces quality gradually first and only shrinks pixel dimensions if quality reduction alone can't reach 350KB, which keeps the result looking as sharp as possible for this target.
For a 350KB target, our tool not needed for typical document or photo dimensions. You generally don't need to resize manually first — the binary-search engine tries quality reduction before touching dimensions, since that usually preserves more visible detail than shrinking the image outright.
You can upload JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, GIF, or BMP and compress to 350KB. For output, choose Auto (the tool picks the best format for a 350KB target) or force JPG, PNG, WebP, or AVIF specifically using the Output Format dropdown.
No. Compressing to 350KB happens entirely inside your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API — nothing is ever sent to a server. That matters especially for a detailed product photo, which you may not want leaving your device at all.
Not currently — this 350KB tool processes one image at a time so it can fully dedicate its binary-search process to hitting your target precisely. Run it again immediately for additional images; there's no limit on repeat uses.
Not directly — this 350KB tool accepts JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, GIF, and BMP, but not Apple's HEIC format. Most iPhones convert HEIC to JPG automatically during a browser upload; if yours doesn't, switch to Settings → Camera → Formats → "Most Compatible" first.
