What you get

You get smaller files, more storage space, and less waiting on uploads.

You can keep your videos, images, GIFs, and PDFs while reducing the space they occupy on your Mac. Compresto can cut file sizes by up to 90%, with no visible change in quality. Smaller files also help you meet attachment limits and spend less time uploading.

You don't have to compress everything individually. Drop in hundreds of files together, let them process in the background, and carry on with your work. You can see how much storage you've recovered rather than guessing whether the cleanup made a difference.

For files you create regularly, you can choose a folder to monitor so new arrivals are compressed automatically. All compression happens locally on your Mac, so your files aren't sent to an online service and you can work without an internet connection.

From the developer

Videos, screenshots, and PDFs can quickly pile up on your Mac, filling up your storage and making you delete things you’d rather keep. Compresto shrinks your files by up to 90%, so you can reclaim that space without losing anything.
