About SVG Optimization
SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) is a text-based format for vector graphics. While SVG files are typically small, they often contain unnecessary code, metadata, and whitespace. Our SVG optimization tool removes this excess data, reducing file sizes by 30-70% while maintaining perfect visual quality. Essential for web developers working with icons and vector graphics. Whether you are optimizing for the NBN, preparing myGov submissions, or sharing files across Australia's vast distances, this tool keeps your files light and quick to transfer — even on regional, fixed-wireless, and satellite connections, with no upload required.
Made for Users in Australia
Australian internet ranges from fast NBN fibre in the capitals to satellite and fixed-wireless in regional and remote areas. Keeping files small is essential for reliable sharing across the NBN, for uploads to myGov and state services, and for delivering content to audiences on Telstra, Optus, and Vodafone mobile networks across vast distances.
- myGov and state government portals enforce upload limits — compress scanned IDs and documents before lodging them.
- For regional users on fixed-wireless or satellite NBN, smaller files mean fewer timeouts on slower, higher-latency links.
- Australian mobile plans often include data caps; pre-compressed media saves data for end users on the go.
- When sharing with New Zealand and Southeast Asia, smaller attachments transfer more reliably across trans-Tasman links.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much smaller can my SVG file get after compression?
Most SVG files shrink by 30-70%. Simple icons often drop from 5 KB to under 2 KB, while files exported from design tools with editor metadata can lose even more. Actual savings depend on how much redundant code, whitespace and metadata the original contains.
Is SVG compression lossless?
Yes. The tool only removes metadata, comments, whitespace and redundant path data while keeping every visible element intact. Your graphic renders pixel-for-pixel identical to the original at any size, so you can safely compress logos and icons without worrying about quality loss.
What is the maximum SVG file size I can upload?
You can upload SVG files up to 10 MB each, and up to 20 files in a single batch. Most icons and logos are far below this limit, typically between 1 KB and 500 KB, so virtually any web graphic will process without issues.
Does optimising an SVG affect its scalability or sharpness?
No. Because SVG is a vector format, the optimised file scales to any resolution with zero quality loss, just like the original. Compression only strips hidden data such as editor metadata and unused definitions, so your icons stay perfectly sharp on retina and 4K displays.
Can I compress multiple SVG files at once?
Yes, batch mode lets you upload up to 20 SVG files simultaneously, and each one is optimised in about 1-2 seconds. You can download all compressed files individually or grab them together in a single ZIP archive, which is ideal for icon sets.
Why is my SVG file so large after exporting from Figma or Illustrator?
Design tools embed editor metadata, layer information and verbose path coordinates. A simple icon exported from Illustrator can easily reach 15 KB when it only needs 3 KB. Optimisation strips this excess code and rounds path numbers, cutting the size by half or more.
Does SVG optimisation remove animations or gradients?
No. Animations, gradients, filters and masks are all preserved during compression. The tool removes only invisible elements such as metadata, comments and empty groups, so animated icons and complex artwork keep working exactly as before while still shrinking by 30% or more.
Are my SVG files safe and deleted after processing?
Yes. Files are transferred over an encrypted HTTPS connection, optimised instantly and automatically deleted from our servers within 1 hour. Nothing is shared, indexed or visible to other users, so you can safely compress client logos and proprietary design assets.
Can I compress files for myGov and state government portals?
Yes. myGov and state services often limit document sizes. Our tools help you get scans and forms under those limits before you upload them.
Will this work on slow regional or satellite NBN?
Yes. Because files are processed locally and never uploaded, the tool works well even on fixed-wireless and satellite connections where upload speeds are limited.
Does it respect my data cap?
Absolutely. Since nothing is uploaded, you only use data for the final, smaller download — ideal for Australians on metered mobile and NBN plans.
What file formats are supported?
We support PNG, JPG, WebP, AVIF, GIF, BMP, PDF, and many more. Check each tool page for its specific format support.
