For everyone who sends & uploads images.

Email attachment full? Notion slow? Slack complaining? Website maintenance? Uncompressed graphics files are neither sustainable nor performant. DropSlim turns PNG, JPEG, GIF, SVG, WebP, HEIC and AVIF into sendable, web-ready files — on Mac and Windows, without exporting anything in Photoshop.

Why DropSlim.
