Optiq

Unoptimized images drag down your site speed, hurt Core Web Vitals, and drive visitors away. Optiq handles it all — automatically.

Upload any image and Optiq converts it to WebP or AVIF, cleans up unused files, and offloads everything to cloud storage. Your workflow stays exactly the same.

What you get:

• Paste from anywhere — Copy an image and paste it directly into the Media Library. No saving to desktop, no browsing folders.
• Safe SVG uploads — Enable SVG support with automatic sanitization. No security trade-offs.
• Automatic WebP & AVIF — Every upload generates next-gen formats. Smaller files, identical quality, better Core Web Vitals.
• Find unused files — The Unused Media Cleaner checks every file against all posts, pages, meta fields, and featured images. Review flagged files and delete with one click.
• Bulk convert your library — Run existing images through the same WebP and AVIF pipeline. Convert your entire media library in a single batch.
• Offload to the cloud — Store media on Amazon S3, Cloudflare R2, Google Cloud Storage, DigitalOcean Spaces, or MinIO. Serve from fast object storage, not your server.
• Your originals stay safe — Optiq never deletes your source files. Optimized versions live alongside your originals.
