People search “Squoosh alternative” when Squoosh is blocked, too heavy on uploads, priced, or simply not the privacy boundary they want for an ID scan.
Squoosh (from Google Chrome Labs) is a local-in-browser compressor with multiple codecs, a side-by-side preview, and power-user settings. It is an excellent reference implementation of “don’t upload.”

What this Squoosh alternative actually does
IMG4FIX is also local, but aimed at everyday jobs: a simpler slider, batch ZIP, and extra URLs for 20/50/100 KB caps, resize, and convert. We are not a codec laboratory.
Use IMG4FIX when you want the same privacy model plus form-oriented landings (passport cm, KB caps) and a simpler path for non-engineers.
When to stay on Squoosh
Stay on Squoosh when you need AVIF/JPEG XL experiments, per-codec tunables, or a pixel-diff preview.
Limits of IMG4FIX versus Squoosh
Fewer codecs and fewer inspect tools than Squoosh. Faster path for “just make it smaller.”
Privacy-first is not unique anymore — product still is
Local encode is the right default. The difference is whether you need a lab or a toolbox. Squoosh is the lab. This site is the toolbox with KB and resize cousins.
Frequently asked questions
Is IMG4FIX the same as Squoosh?
No. This is an independent site. We describe overlap so you can choose. We do not use Squoosh servers for this encode.
Is this a Squoosh fork?
No. Different UI, different product. Same idea: canvas/wasm in the tab.
AVIF?
Only if this browser’s encoder exposes it for our convert path. Squoosh exposes more codecs explicitly.
Batch?
IMG4FIX batches; Squoosh is typically one image at a time in the UI.

TinyPNG Alternative
IMG4FIX recompresses PNG and JPEG on a canvas in the browser. PNG keeps transparency. We do not call TinyPNG’s API. Savings on some PNGs will be weaker than their specialized crush; the trade is that the file stays on the device. Use the tool on this page. IMG4FIX is not TinyPNG and is not affiliated with them.
