WCompress, the Exact-Kilobyte Compressor
A browser-based compressor for images, videos, PDFs, and SVGs that targets strict file-size limits without sending files to a server.
Field notes
The tool exposes four compression modes, including a target-size mode built around binary search rather than a single quality slider. Its documented processing paths cover raster images, video through FFmpeg WebAssembly, PDF object structures, and SVG path data, with examples ranging from a 50 KB passport preset to an SVG coordinate simplification claim. The page also describes batch handling and ZIP output, while presenting the browser’s local RAM as the processing boundary.
