BD Image Optimizer

Faster Images, Better SEO, Zero Effort

BD Image Optimizer compresses your images, converts them to WebP, resizes oversized uploads, and even generates alt text using AI — all from inside WordPress. No external services, no monthly API fees for optimization, and no image quality loss you can actually see.

Key Features

• Lossy & Lossless Compression — Compress JPEG and PNG images using PHP GD with configurable quality (default 82%). Typical savings: 30-60%.
• WebP Conversion — Automatically create WebP versions of every image. WebP files are 25-35% smaller than JPEG at equivalent quality.
• WebP Serving — Serves WebP images to supported browsers using <picture> elements. No .htaccess hacks, no server configuration needed.
• Auto-Resize Large Images — Automatically downscale images that exceed your configured maximum dimensions (default 2560px).
• Auto-Optimize on Upload — Every new image is compressed, converted, and resized the moment you upload it.
• Bulk Optimization — Optimize your entire media library in one click. Chunked processing handles libraries of any size.
• Original Backups — Keep backups of original images so you can restore them anytime with one click.
• AI Alt Text Generation (Pro+) — Generate descriptive, SEO-friendly alt text for every image using Claude AI. Supports 12 languages.
• Your Own API Key (Pro+) — Uses your own Anthropic API key for alt text. You pay only for what you use — typically less than $0.001 per image.
• Thumbnail Optimization — Compresses and converts all WordPress-generated thumbnail sizes, not just the original.
• White Label (Agency) — Remove BD branding for client sites.
