See every featureSlow images cost sales. Shrink Ray compresses your product images automatically, shrinking files with no visible quality loss, so your pages load faster and your image links never change. Every original is backed up before we touch it, so you can restore any image with one click. If compressing wouldn't make an image smaller, we skip it and say so. AI writes alt text for images missing it.
Vibebun Image Optimizer reduces image file sizes directly on your Shopify store without breaking existing links or storefront layouts. The app downloads each image, compresses it using iterative quality reduction, and replaces it in place so your CDN URLs stay the same. Originals are preserved so you can roll back any optimization instantly. AI-powered alt text suggestions help improve SEO and accessibility.
