How the SVG Optimizer Works
Our SVG optimizer analyzes your SVG code and removes unnecessary data while preserving visual appearance. Design tools like Adobe Illustrator, Figma, and Inkscape add extra metadata, comments, and attributes that bloat file size without affecting how the SVG renders.
What Gets Removed
We remove XML declarations, DOCTYPE definitions, comments, metadata elements (title, desc, RDF), editor-specific namespaces and attributes (Inkscape, Illustrator, Sketch), empty groups and defs, and optionally minify whitespace for maximum compression.
Safe Optimization
All visual elements are preserved: paths, shapes, colors, gradients, filters, and transforms. The optimized SVG will render identically to the original while being significantly smaller.
Privacy First
All optimization happens locally in your browser. Your SVG code is never uploaded to any server, making this tool safe for proprietary logos, icons, and graphics.
