How to optimize an SVG
- Open your SVG — drag it onto the tool, choose a file, or paste from your clipboard.
- It's optimized instantly — the tool cleans and minifies the markup for you.
- See the savings — the before and after sizes show how much smaller it got.
- Download — save the optimized .svg, visually identical and lighter.
Why optimize an SVG?
SVGs exported from Illustrator, Figma, or Inkscape carry a lot of extra data — comments, metadata, unused definitions, and long decimal numbers. Optimizing removes all of that without changing how the image looks, often cutting 40 to 70 percent of the file size. Smaller SVGs load faster and are easier to paste inline.

Frequently asked questions
How do I optimize an SVG?
Drop your SVG above and it's cleaned and minified automatically. The before and after sizes show the savings, and you download a visually identical but lighter file. It all runs in your browser.
Is the SVG optimizer free?
Yes — free, no watermark, no sign-up, and no limit on the number of files. The optimized SVG is a normal file you can use anywhere.
Will optimizing change how my SVG looks?
No. The default settings preserve the look exactly — the viewBox is kept so it still scales, and only safe, lossless cleanups are applied. Aggressive mode additionally tidies IDs and drops fixed width/height, which is ideal for inline SVGs.
Where is my SVG processed?
The optimization happens in your browser, so the cleaned SVG is created on your own device. How any data associated with the tool is handled is described in our privacy policy.
