An SVG exported from Illustrator, Figma, Inkscape or Sketch usually carries far more markup than the actual rendering needs: an XML prolog, generator comments, an unused metadata block, redundant groups and long, unrounded path coordinates. For a single graphic that hardly matters, but across many icons on one page it adds up to noticeably more load time.
This tool uses SVGO, the de-facto standard for SVG optimization, with its well-established preset-default rule set: comments and metadata are dropped, shapes like rectangles or circles are merged into shorter path equivalents where that saves bytes, numbers are rounded and unused definitions are removed. The result looks visually identical but is noticeably smaller.
Deliberately conservative: the viewBox attribute is preserved (SVGO no longer strips it by default, because that can break a graphic's responsiveness), and there are no aggressive, riskier extra plugins to toggle on. If you want to convert the graphic to a raster, or you have an .svgz file, the matching neighbor tools are listed below.
Limitations: Optimization uses the standard rule set (preset-default) with no adjustable extra plugins. Very unusual markup (for instance complex filters or scripts inside the SVG) can limit the savings. Invalid SVG that cannot be parsed as XML is honestly rejected instead of producing a broken file.
FAQ
Is my file uploaded?
No, everything runs locally in the browser - even offline.
Does the graphic look different afterwards?
No, it stays visually identical - only redundant markup is removed.
Is the viewBox attribute preserved?
Yes, it is deliberately not removed so the graphic stays responsive.
How much smaller does my file get?
It depends heavily on the source - exports from design programs usually shrink the most.
Can I optimize several SVGs at once?
Yes. Drop several files; with multiple results you get them as a ZIP.
