Use Cloudinary’s Compress png to 15KB solution to shrink JPG, PNG, or HEIC images to 15KB or below with great visual fidelity. Drag and drop or upload manually and the process runs instantly. We use smart format selection (f_auto) and dynamic quality control (q_auto) to keep your images lightweight yet sharp. Great for media-heavy platforms or mobile-first apps that need faster load speeds and better UX.

Definitely. The Cloudinary API supports complete automation for Compress png to 15KB tasks. Just upload using the API and apply q_auto:low, f_auto, fl_lossy to compress content effectively. You can also configure constraints or chain transformations to ensure each asset meets the size goal, ideal for bulk handling or UGC.

To land near 15KB, we apply perceptual, visually lossless optimization that responds to the image’s content. Quality impact is minimal and typically invisible at everyday sizes because we retain edges, textures, and essential details while eliminating redundancy. Strict lossless modes are likely to exceed 15KB; for bit-perfect needs choose PNG or lossless AVIF/WebP and plan for a larger file. For most photos and marketing graphics, the perceptual route creates a very light image with no meaningful visual change. If artifacts are visible, increase the quality slightly or reduce dimensions to hold around 15KB while preserving the look.
