SVGOMG

SVGOMG is a web app for shrinking and tidying SVG files, the vector format commonly used for icons, logos, and interface graphics. It wraps an SVG optimizer in a friendly visual interface, so you can see the original and optimized markup sIDE by side while adjusting settings. The project is associated with Jake Archibald, a well-known web developer, and is distributed as an open web tool that runs in the browser.

What it does

The tool takes an uploaded or pasted SVG and rEMOves unnecessary data: redundant Metadata, editor comments, unused groups, and overly precise numeric values. Because SVG is text-based, these cleanups can substantially reduce file size without changing how the graphic looks. SVGOMG presents the result as a before-and-after Comparison, letting you judge whether a setting has gone too far.

Key capabilities

• DRAG-and-drop, file upload, or paste input for SVG markup.
• A side-by-side view of the original and compressed ouTPUt, with the markup and size shown.
• A large set of toggles and options covering precision, path data, IDs, metadata removal, and shape conveRSIon.
• Preview modes that display the optimized graphic so visual differences are easy to spot.
• Copy or download of the finished SVG for use in a project.

Who it is for

SVGOMG suits front-end developers, designers, and anyone shipping icons or Vector Illustrations on the web. It is especially useful when hand-drawn or exported SVGs come out bloated after editing in design software. Teams that need Lightweight assets for performance-sensitive pages can use it as a quick manual cleanup step. It is not a design tool and does not create or edit artwork beyond optimization; it is also not an AI generation product, despite APPearing in AI tool directories.

How to get started

Open the site in a modern browser and load an SVG through the drop area, file picker, or paste field. Review the default compression result first, then enable or disable indiVidual options to balance size against fidelity. Use the preview to confirm the shape renders correctly, then download or copy the output. complex files with gradients, filters, or embedded fonts may need extra care, and the best settings may vary by asset.

Pricing and access caveat

SVGOMG is Generally available free of charge as a browser-based utility, and no account is required for typical use. Because it is a community-style open project, availability, hosting, and maintenance can change over time, and specific options may vary between versions. Verify the current behavior before relying on it in a production pipeline.
