Your files, smaller wherever you drop them

Use the Shift-drag wheel, the menu bar, watched folders or the main window. Squeezo compresses, converts and edits photos, videos, GIFs, PDFs and audio, entirely on your Mac.

On-device OCR

Hold Shift. Pick an action. Drop.

Drag files from anywhere on your Mac and press Shift. A wheel opens under your cursor: drop on Compress, Convert, Resize, Crop or Remove Background, and Squeezo does it without opening a window.

One window. Every tool.

Pick a tool on the left, drop your files in the middle and tune the options on the right. Everything is a click away, and the original is always kept safe.

See every edit before you run it

Drag the corners to crop, place a watermark, or choose a ratio like 1:1, 4:3 or 16:9. Each edit has a live preview, and it works on pictures, video, GIFs and PDF pages.

Smaller files, same look

Squeezo picks the right encoder for each format and checks the result. It never hands back a file larger than the one you gave it.

Replaced originals go to the Trash first. One click in the list brings the file back, exactly as it was.

Your files are processed on your Mac and never uploaded. There is no account and no analytics. The only network requests are the license check and update check.

Built for everything you drop

From photo shoots and screen recordings to scanned contracts and slide decks, Squeezo keeps every file light and ready to send.

Optimise screenshots, GIFs and PDFs for docs, READMEs and release notes.

Video makers

Turn a 4K clip into something you can email, or a screen recording into a GIF.

Students and researchers

Merge scans, split long PDFs, and pull text out of pictures with on-device OCR.

Teams and offices

Shrink Word, PowerPoint and Excel files before sending, and handle new downloads automatically.
