About
Compress unlimited images, PDFs, and videos 100% locally on Apple Silicon. No file size caps, no daily limits, no cloud uploads — $29 one-time. The Mac compression app with no quotas. Most image compression tools are dumb. They were built for the previous era of the internet. They treat every pixel almost equally. At Smol, we built a neural compression pipeline that analyzes an image semantically and decides what actually matters to the human eye.
