See every featureSpeed AI helps merchants improve store loading performance by automating technical optimizations directly within Shopify. Slow page load speeds create friction for shoppers and negatively affect store browsing. Speed AI addresses these issues by compressing store images into modern WebP formats, removing leftover app code blocks from uninstalled apps, and deferring offscreen media.
Squishbit automatically optimize images across your store, choosing the most optimal format and compression, to strike the perfect balance between size and visual quality. By reducing the size of your imagery, your pages load faster, which improves user experience and impacts SEO performance positively.
