Compress Image to 50KB

50KB is a tight budget usually reserved for thumbnails, signature uploads, or strict portal limits. Hitting it well by hand means a lot of trial and error with quality sliders — Retouchr automates that search and downscales the image if quality alone isn't enough.

Because it runs locally in your browser, there's no wait for an upload and no risk of your photo touching a server.

FAQ

Will the result be exactly 50KB?

It will be at or just under 50KB. At such a small budget the tool often needs to shrink the image dimensions as well as the quality to fit.

Will a 50KB image look blurry?

At this size some softness is expected, especially for detailed photos. It's well suited to small thumbnails, avatars, or signature/document uploads rather than full-size photos.

Can I set a custom target instead of 50KB?

Yes — the tool includes a custom KB field, so you can dial in any target size, not just the presets.
