MAZANOKE is a simple image optimizer that runs in your browser, works offline, and keeps your images private without ever leaving your device.
Created for everyday people and designed to be easily shared with family and friends, it serves as an alternative to questionable “free” online tools.

Highlights from v1.1.0 (view full release note)
I’m delighted to present some much-requested features in this release, including support for HEIC file conversion!
- Added support to convert
HEIC,AVIF→JPG,PNG,WebP. - Paste image/files from clipboard to start optimization.
- When setting a file size limit, you can switch between units MB and KB.
- Remember last-used settings, stored locally in the browser.
The support from the community has been incredibly encouraging, and with over 4500 docker pulls, the project is now humbly making its way toward a 500 stars milestone.
The project also received its first donation, which I’m incredibly grateful for!
Feature suggestion: add the option to remove metadata from an image.
EXIF data is removed by default, at the moment, there’s no way to keep those data. I personally see that more as a feature than a bug though. The primary reason why there is no option to keep EXIF data is to maintain feature parity across different image formats.
