How to optimize an SVG
- Add an SVG file.
- Choose a decimal precision and what to strip.
- Select Optimize SVG and download.
How this works
Comments, editor-specific metadata (from Illustrator, Sketch, Figma, or Inkscape exports), and excess whitespace are stripped, and decimal numbers in coordinates and path data are rounded to your chosen precision — real, verifiable size reduction.
A note on scope
This performs safe, text-level optimizations. It deliberately does not attempt path geometry re-optimization or ID minification, the more aggressive transforms a full build-time SVG optimizer can do — those need a real path/CSS parser to do safely.
Common use cases
- Shrink an SVG icon exported from Illustrator, Figma, or Sketch
- Strip editor metadata and comments from an SVG before shipping it
- Reduce a website's page weight by optimizing its SVG assets
Frequently asked questions
Is this SVG optimizer free?
Yes. It is completely free, with no signup and no limits.
Is my file uploaded anywhere?
No. Optimization happens entirely in your browser. Nothing is sent to Inqita or stored.
Will this change how my SVG looks?
No — rounding decimal precision and stripping comments/metadata doesn't visually change the SVG. If a reduction doesn't shrink the file, you'll see a message rather than a broken result.
What precision should I choose?
2 decimal places is a safe default for most icons and illustrations. Try 0 or 1 for maximum compression on simpler shapes.
