SVG optimization removes unnecessary content from SVG files: editor metadata, comments, hidden elements, default attribute values, and redundant whitespace. It also merges paths, converts shapes to shorter equivalents, and rounds decimal coordinates. The result is a smaller, cleaner SVG that renders identically.
Savings vary widely depending on how the SVG was created. Exported from Illustrator or Inkscape: 50-80% reduction. Hand-optimized SVGs: 10-30%. SVGs from design tools like Figma are already somewhat clean: 20-50%. This tool shows you the exact byte savings.
With default settings, optimization is lossless β the optimized SVG renders identically to the original. Aggressive options like removing viewBox or merging styles could affect scaling or external styling. This tool uses safe default SVGO presets.
Yes. An optimized inline SVG can be pasted directly into HTML. For img tags or CSS backgrounds, save as an .svg file. For very small icons, consider converting to a data URI (e.g., url("data:image/svg+xml,...")) for zero HTTP requests.
