How to Use

Choose: round coordinates, use relative commands, merge collinear segments, remove redundant movetos.

Copy optimised path

Copy the optimised "d" attribute string with a size reduction report.

SVG Path Optimisation

SVG paths exported from design tools often contain unnecessary precision, redundant commands, and inefficient segment representations. This optimizer applies a series of lossless and configurable lossy optimisations to reduce path data size while preserving the intended shape.

Real-World Examples & Use Cases

Web Performance

Optimise SVG icon paths to reduce file size before including them in a web application.

Inline SVG

Minify SVG path data before inlining in HTML to reduce markup size.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much size reduction is typical?▼

Path optimisation typically reduces path data by 30–60%. Rounding to 2 decimal places alone often saves 20%.

Does this change the visible shape?▼

Rounding coordinates may cause sub-pixel changes. Collinear segment merging and redundant command removal are visually lossless.
