Instead of TinyPNG
TinyPNG alternatives
TinyPNG is a lossy compressor for PNG and other image formats, with batch processing, resizing, metadata controls, and API access. Its free web plan allows 20 compressions per session for images up to 5 MB, plus three conversions per session. The API includes 500 free compressions each month, then charges for successful compressions without subscription fees or minimum charges. Web Pro and Web Ultra prices are not provided, and TinyPNG’s platform listing is API rather than desktop operating systems.

A different tool may suit you better if you need site-wide image delivery, offline file handling, lossless processing, or a platform beyond an API. Compare whether optimization happens on demand or on files you select, and whether you need cropping, responsive images, or a broad format range. Also consider TinyPNG’s session and file-size limits, conversion allowance, API billing, and the alternative’s own pricing. Those tradeoffs matter more than choosing by format count alone: some options focus on PNG, while others support website workflows or local processing.
