Benefits

Better performance, better user experience

Fastly's Image Optimizer helps you improve performance without sacrificing user experience. Enhance image-heavy sites' page load speeds with optimized images, transformed and delivered at the edge.

  • Transform and serve images faster

    Offload image transformation to our powerful edge cloud platform. When an image is requested, we resize it, adjust quality, crop/trim, change orientations, convert formats, cache, and deliver, all on demand. This eliminates latency and allows you to improve page load times, bolstering your site’s performance.

  • Cut infrastructure costs

    Lower egress costs by caching more images at the edge. Eliminate expensive image transformation applications and servers at your origin. Save on storage costs by storing one source file and generating the optimal image on demand. Take savings a step further by leveraging zero-egress Object Storage.

  • Delight your users — and team

    Image Optimizer delights your site’s visitors with fast-loading pages — and lets your dev team focus on more fulfilling work than optimizing images. Quick and simple setup and maintenance means immediate results and less headaches.

“We measured a 10-15% reduction in image size for all our core images, quite a bit smaller than WebP, which then reduces our bandwidth usage.”
