Bloxx Pics / Alternatives / TinyPNG
An alternative to TinyPNG
where you change an image by editing its link.
TinyPNG makes image files smaller and converts them between AVIF, WebP, PNG and JPEG. Bloxx Pics gives every image a link. Change its size, shape and format by changing the link, and every image also describes itself to AI assistants.
Which one to pick
Choose TinyPNG if
- You want to shrink a batch of files once, with no signup.
- You want the smallest file, then host it yourself.
Choose Bloxx Pics if
- You want the image hosted as well as compressed, at a link you can share.
- You want each visitor to get the right size and format automatically.
- You want to change size later by editing the link instead of re-uploading.

What only Bloxx Pics does
- Every image link has a .json twin that tells an AI its real size, alt text and ready-made sizes before it uses the image.
- bloxx.pics/llms.txt explains the link format to any AI, so it can write the right size without a connector.
- Alt text is required on upload, so images arrive described.
- The same Bloxx account runs your website, videos, documents and booking links, so an image uploaded once is used everywhere.
