Byteslim Image Optimizer

Self-hosted image optimisation for WordPress

Compression, WebP/AVIF conversion, scaling, lazy loading and AI-generated alt text on your own server, with no per-image credits. Formerly Smart Image Optimizer.

Status: Available WordPress pluginVersion 1.2.2

Byteslim compresses and converts images on your own server — no external API, no credits, no bandwidth caps. The free edition is a complete optimizer: compression, WebP conversion and delivery, a resumable bulk optimizer, a savings dashboard, logs and WP-CLI.

Premium adds image scaling, lazy loading, AI-generated alt text, AVIF, server-level next-gen delivery (including inside WooCommerce and page builders), backups of originals, scheduling and media cleanup. Byteslim was previously called Smart Image Optimizer; upgrading migrates settings and history automatically.

Features

Compression & WebP

Smaller files without visible loss; a file is replaced only if the result is genuinely smaller.

AVIF & next-gen delivery

AVIF generation and server-level delivery, including in WooCommerce and page builders (Premium).

AI alt text

Alt text generated for images to help accessibility and search (Premium).

Scaling & lazy load

Oversized images scaled down and lazy-loaded with a blur-up placeholder (Premium).

Restorable backups

Originals kept so any image can be rolled back (Premium).

Runs on your server

Unlimited images, no credits, no monthly fees.

Questions about Byteslim Image Optimizer

Is the free version a trial?

No. It is a complete optimizer with no time limit and no signup. Premium adds AVIF, backups, scheduling and builder delivery.

What if my server does not support WebP or AVIF?

Those conversions are skipped automatically and normal compression still runs. The Server Status screen shows which formats your host supports.
