Optimole
Optimole is a web service for optimizing and delivering images across WordPress sites and other integrations. It resizes images for a visitor’s device and screen, adjusts quality based on device and connection, and supports conversion or delivery in WebP and AVIF. Its WordPress plugin optimizes uploaded images in real time, while sites beyond WordPress can connect through custom integration. The Media API provides more than 50 URL-based image transformations, and API access is available. Digital Asset Management includes a central media library, folders, tagging, and filtering; teams can use access controls and share assets with external stakeholders. Optimole uses Amazon CloudFront, which it says has more than 450 locations worldwide. Its Free plan costs nothing and allows 2,000 monthly visits, unlimited images, and unlimited sites. A free trial is promoted without a credit card requirement, and purchases have a 7-day no-questions-asked money-back guarantee. Monthly and yearly billing are offered, with yearly billing marked to save 20%.
