Features of TinyFast

100% Local & Private Compression

Every compression task is executed entirely on your local machine. TinyFast is engineered with privacy by design, meaning your files are never uploaded to the cloud or external servers. This is essential for anyone working under Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) or with sensitive client assets, providing total peace of mind and complete data sovereignty without compromising on functionality or speed.

Blazing-Fast Batch Processing

TinyFast is optimized for speed and efficiency. You can drag and drop not just single files, but entire folders full of images, videos, or documents. The app utilizes optimized native engines to shrink large batches of files in mere seconds, bypassing the lengthy wait times associated with uploading to and downloading from online tools. This feature continuously refines your workflow, saving you hours every week.

Universal File Format Support

The tool supports an extensive range of common file types, making it a universal solution for various projects. This includes images (PNG, JPG, TIFF, HEIC, WEBP, GIF, BMP, SVG), videos (MP4, MOV, M4V), documents (PDF, DOCX), code files (JS, CSS, JSON), and audio (MP3). This versatility ensures you have a single, reliable tool for all your compression needs, fostering an iterative and streamlined asset management process.

Integrated Resolution Resizing

Beyond simple compression, TinyFast allows you to automatically resize the resolution of your images and videos during the optimization process. This dual functionality means you can reduce both file size and physical dimensions in one swift action, perfect for preparing assets for web, email, or specific platform requirements, further enhancing your creative control and output efficiency.

Use Cases of TinyFast

Preparing Web and App Assets

Developers and web designers can efficiently compress and resize batches of images, SVGs, and videos directly on their Mac before integrating them into websites or applications. This local process ensures faster load times for end-users while maintaining the security of unreleased project assets, embodying a cycle of improved performance and protection.

Securing Confidential Client Work

Freelancers and agencies handling sensitive client materials, such as pre-release product images, legal documents, or confidential presentations, can use TinyFast to safely reduce file sizes for sharing. Since files never leave the computer, it completely eliminates the risk of data breaches associated with online file compression services.

Optimizing Content for Social Media & Portfolios

Content creators, marketers, and photographers can quickly prepare high-quality images and videos for social media platforms, online portfolios, or client deliveries. The drag-and-drop simplicity and speed allow for rapid iteration and batch processing, enabling a continuous workflow of creating, optimizing, and publishing without security compromises.

Managing Project File Sizes

Project managers and teams working with large collections of documentation, code files, or design assets can use TinyFast to compress folders of PDFs, code bundles, or screenshots. This helps in keeping project archives manageable, speeding up backup processes, and making file sharing through email or messaging apps significantly more efficient and secure.
