Compress image, resize a folder, convert HEIC to JPG, or turn images to PDF in one local batch recipe. Inspect every step, see the bytes and dimensions, and export without uploading your files.
Both layers use the same 1,024 × 1,152 source pixels. Background removal preserves the subject with refined alpha.
Compression comparison: 166,171 → 63,891 bytes · 57.2% smaller at the same dimensions.

WORKFLOWS
Recipes for complete image jobs.
Choose a workflow for web images, product photos, social formats, target-size compression, responsive image sets, watermark batches, or local sharing. Edit every step when you need control.
01
Web optimizer
Fit, convert, strip metadata, and compress a whole folder for the web.
02
Product photos
Make a consistent product batch without uploading originals or paying per image.
03
Social pack
Generate square, portrait, and story-ready outputs from each source.
04
Private sharing
See GPS and camera metadata, strip it explicitly, then review privacy boxes before blur export.
05
Image to PDF
Reorder pages, choose A4 or Letter, fit or fill, set margins, and export one compact local PDF or one per image.
06
Guidance, not guarantees
Editable platform starting points plus dimensions-only ID print sheets. Published guidance changes; PixelProof does not promise acceptance.
LOCAL PROCESSING
Image bytes stay in the browser.
Private. Image bytes stay in your browser. The app downloads its own code and background-removal models; checkout and licence validation carry no image data.
Practical. Limits are stated before processing, folders stay organized, and ZIP is always available.
Honest. JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC/HEIF, BMP, static GIF, ICO, and SVG input are supported. Animated inputs warn and use only the first frame.
Bounded. No JPEG XL, RAW/DNG, animated conversion, GIF-to-MP4, raster-to-vector, PDF-to-image, automatic face detection, automatic background removal, or AI upscale.

OFFLINE OPERATION
Load one payment. Turn off your network. Keep working.
After the app shell is cached, run a normal JPEG, HEIC, or images-to-PDF job with your network disabled. Your image bytes stay in the browser. First-use background-removal models, checkout, licence validation, and updates need a connection.
Image bytes stay in your browser. PixelProof has no image upload endpoint. The app downloads its own code and, on first background-removal use, model files. Checkout and licence validation carry no image data.
What is stored locally?
Completed outputs are kept for up to 24 hours for recovery. Settings, recipes, profiles, presets, licence state, and optional model files remain until you clear them. The workbench shows sizes and provides clear buttons.
What is a task?
A task means one submitted job. A recipe counts once even when it creates multiple output files. Free includes 10 jobs per day and batches up to 5 input files.
Can I verify the privacy claim?
Yes. Open the workbench's How it works panel for a self-test and local-data inventory. You can also load the app, turn off your network, and process a normal JPEG, HEIC, or PDF job after the shell is cached. First-use background-removal models, checkout, licence validation, and updates need a connection.
What is a recipe?
A recipe is an editable sequence of existing tools for a complete job, such as making a folder web-ready or generating a social pack. You can inspect each operation, change it, save it, and export it for a teammate.
Can I make a PDF?
Yes. Image to PDF accepts multiple images, supports drag reordering, A4, Letter or matching image size, orientation, margins, fit/fill, and one combined PDF or one PDF per image. Inputs are re-encoded locally to keep output sizes practical.
What formats are supported?
JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF output, HEIC/HEIF, BMP, static GIF, ICO, and SVG input. Animated GIF, APNG, and WebP are detected before processing and only their first frame is used. AVIF input, JPEG XL, RAW/DNG, animated conversion, GIF-to-MP4, raster-to-vector, and PDF-to-image are not shipped.
Are platform profiles guarantees?
No. They are editable starting points based on published guidance, with a source URL and checked date. Platform requirements change and PixelProof does not claim approval or compliance.
Do ID photos meet government requirements?
No claim is made. The ID print-sheet tool handles physical dimensions and paper layout only. It does not check face position, expression, lighting, background, editing rules, eligibility, or application acceptance.
Are there credits or surprise watermarks?
No image-processing credits and no surprise watermark. Free limits are stated before processing, and lifetime plans have their batch ceilings shown up front.
Can I hit a specific file size?
Yes. Target-size compression searches quality separately for every image. If the byte budget is impossible at the current dimensions, PixelProof says so and can optionally reduce dimensions.
What metadata is removed?
The Metadata tool shows readable EXIF fields, including camera, timestamps, software, and GPS presence. You can strip all metadata or keep copyright and orientation when exporting JPEG.
Do folder paths survive?
Yes. Relative paths remain visible in results and are preserved in ZIP exports or in a folder you choose in supported Chromium browsers. ZIP is the portable fallback on Safari and Firefox.
Can I paste a screenshot?
Yes. Focus the workbench and press Ctrl+V or ⌘V with an image on the clipboard. Text-only paste is left alone.
Is background removal automatic?
No. It is click-to-select, with keyboard coordinates available for positioning the selection point. You choose the subject, and the browser refines that selection into continuous alpha. It is not automatic face detection.
