Minify SVG — Reduce File Size Instantly

Shrink your SVG files without changing how they look. The minifier strips XML declarations, comments, title, desc, and metadata elements, empty groups, and redundant whitespace — everything that adds bytes without affecting rendering — and shows you exactly how much you saved.

Features

  • Removes comments, metadata, titles, descriptions, and empty groups
  • Collapses whitespace between and inside tags
  • Size savings report showing characters saved and percentage reduction
  • Safe by design: path data, coordinates, IDs, classes, and animation attributes are never touched

How it works

  1. Paste your SVG source code or upload an .svg file.
  2. Click Minify — the cleanup runs instantly in your browser.
  3. Copy the minified output and use it in your HTML, CSS, or JavaScript.

Frequently asked questions

How much smaller will my SVG get?

SVGs exported from design tools like Illustrator or Figma typically shrink 20–60% because they carry heavy metadata. Hand-written minimal SVGs may see little change.

Will minification break my SVG animations?

No. The tool only removes metadata and whitespace. Path data, coordinates, IDs, classes, and animation attributes are left intact.

Is my SVG uploaded to a server?

No. All processing happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your SVG code never leaves your device.
