Compress Pilot

Compress Pilot automatically compresses your Shopify store images to reduce file sizes without sacrificing visual quality. Smaller images mean faster page loads, better Core Web Vitals scores, and higher conversion rates.

How it works

1. Scan — Compress Pilot scans your store and identifies all images that have not yet been optimised.
2. Compress — Images are compressed in the background. Lossless compression preserves full visual quality while reducing file size.
3. Replace — Optimised images are written back to your Shopify store. Your URLs and product data remain unchanged.

Key features

Lossless compression

Reduces image file sizes without any visible quality loss. Your product images look identical to customers — they just load faster.

Bulk processing

Compress your entire existing image library in one job. New images uploaded after setup are compressed automatically.

Background processing

Compression jobs run server-side and do not slow down your storefront during processing.

Core Web Vitals improvement

Smaller images directly improve Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) and overall page speed scores — both Google ranking factors.
