Imagi Boost

Image Boost is a free, powerful image optimization plugin that works 100% locally on your server. Unlike other optimization plugins, Image Boost requires no API keys, makes no external requests, and has no usage limits. Your images never leave your server.

It uses your server’s built-in Imagick or GD library to intelligently compress JPEG, PNG, GIF, and WebP images — reducing file sizes by up to 60% without visible quality loss.

🚀 Why Image Boost?

• 100% Local Processing — No API keys, no cloud uploads, no privacy concerns
• Zero Usage Limits — Optimize unlimited images, forever
• Smart Compression — Imperceptible quality loss with significant file size reduction
• WebP Delivery — Automatic <picture> tag output for modern browser support
• One-Click Bulk Optimize — Process your entire media library in minutes
• Full Backup System — Every original is safely backed up and can be restored instantly
• WooCommerce Ready — Works with product images, galleries, and all custom post types

⚡ How It Works

1. Upload an image normally to your Media Library.
2. Image Boost automatically compresses it in the background (if auto-optimize is enabled).
3. A WebP version is generated and served to supported browsers via smart <picture> tags.
4. View savings per image directly in the Media Library, or check the beautiful Dashboard for overall stats.

🎯 Compression Levels

• Normal — Lossless metadata stripping. Zero quality loss. ~5-15% savings.
• Pro — Smart lossy compression with imperceptible quality loss. ~40-60% savings. (Recommended)
