What Asset Melt is

Asset Melt is a browser-based image studio for compressing, converting, resizing, cropping and exporting images in batches. Processing runs locally in browser Web Workers with WebAssembly codecs, and the maker says there is no upload endpoint unless you export files. Compression can target a chosen quality or file size, resizing only when needed to meet a size budget. Editing includes exact-dimension resizing, non-destructive cropping, rotation, flipping, brightness and contrast filters. The Studio supports JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC, TIFF, JPEG XL and QOI. Batch queues can be reordered, paused or cancelled, with downloads available individually or as a ZIP. Presets cover OG images, X cards, Instagram sizes, App Store screenshots, newsletter images and favicon kits. Asset Melt can be installed as a PWA, with optional offline use after downloading its pack, and it accepts JSON pipelines for repeatable compression workflows. The free plan costs nothing, is described as free forever, requires no account and has no subscriptions or artificial limits.
