What is Compress an image to 300KB?

TL;DR: Type 300 KB as your target and Shrink44 binary-searches the quality (and resolution if needed) to land at or just under 300KB — without uploading your image.

Reaching a 300KB ceiling is a common requirement for application forms and marketplace listings. Most compressors only give you a quality slider; Shrink44 lets you set 300KB as an exact target and does the maths for you.

It works by iteratively binary-searching the encoding until the output lands at or below 300KB, all inside your browser — so even sensitive ID photos never touch a server.
