# Zipic > Chinese version: https://zipic.app/llms-zh.txt > Zipic is a native macOS image-compression and format-conversion utility built by independent developer okooo5km (十里). It batch-compresses and converts JPEG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, AVIF, TIFF, GIF, JPEG XL, ICNS, PDF, SVG, and APNG entirely on-device — no uploads, no cloud, no account, fully sandboxed, works offline. Available on the Mac App Store and as a direct download. The free tier handles up to 25 images per day. Pro is a one-time purchase — NOT a subscription — with lifetime updates: Solo $19.99 (1 device), Personal $29.99 (2 devices), Team $129.99 (10 devices). Pro unlocks unlimited compression, advanced formats (AVIF, JPEG XL, TIFF, ICNS, PDF, SVG, APNG), folder monitoring, clipboard auto-compress, Notch Drop, and Raycast/Shortcuts integration. Zipic is positioned as a modern replacement for ImageOptim — same "drag and forget" workflow, but with native Apple Silicon performance, AVIF/WebP/JPEG-XL encoding, format conversion, resizing, and automation hooks that ImageOptim never shipped. System requirement: macOS 13 (Ventura) or later. Universal binary (Apple Silicon + Intel). ## Core Pages - [Home](https://zipic.app/llms/home.md): Product overview, supported formats, key features - [Pricing](https://zipic.app/llms/pricing.md): Free vs Pro plans, lifetime license, education discount - [About](https://zipic.app/llms/about.md): Developer background and product philosophy - [FAQ](https://zipic.app/llms/faq.md): Common questions about formats, privacy, system requirements - [Current version](https://zipic.app/llms/version.md): Latest public release and what shipped ## Documentation (19 guides mirrored from docs.zipic.app) - [Welcome to Zipic](https://zipic.app/docs/index.md): Get started using Zipic to optimize your images efficiently. - [AI & CLI Integration](https://zipic.app/docs/ai/overview.md): Drive Zipic from your shell, scripts, and AI agents — beyond the GUI. - [Activating Pro Version](https://zipic.app/docs/guides/activating.md): Activate Zipic Pro - [Image Compression Formats](https://zipic.app/docs/guides/choosing-image-formats.md): Learn about the image compression formats supported by Zipic and how to convert images to more efficient formats. - [Image Save Options](https://zipic.app/docs/guides/configuring-save-options.md): Learn more about Zipic's image save options. - [Basic Image Compression](https://zipic.app/docs/guides/image-compression-basic.md): Learn the basic operations of Zipic image compression. - [Auto Compression](https://zipic.app/docs/guides/monitoring-directory-autocompression.md): Automate your workflow with Zipic's auto-compression features. - [Integrating Zipic](https://zipic.app/docs/guides/optimizing-workflow.md): Seamlessly integrate Zipic into your workflow. - [Resizing Images](https://zipic.app/docs/guides/resizing-images.md): How to resize images using Zipic. - [Raycast Extension](https://zipic.app/docs/guides/using-raycast-extension.md): Quickly compress images in Finder using the Raycast extension. - [Recommended Usage](https://zipic.app/docs/reference/recommended-settings.md): Optimize compression with our recommended settings. - [Use Cases](https://zipic.app/docs/reference/use-cases.md): Image Compression Use Cases - [Website Resources](https://zipic.app/docs/resources/additional-resources.md): Additional useful resources - [Affiliate Program](https://zipic.app/docs/resources/affiliate-program.md): Join Zipic's affiliate program and earn generous commissions by sharing our product. - [FAQ](https://zipic.app/docs/resources/faq.md): Common questions to help you get started quickly - [Troubleshooting](https://zipic.app/docs/resources/troubleshooting.md): Diagnose and resolve common issues with Zipic using Debug Mode and log export. - [Installation](https://zipic.app/docs/started/installation.md): Quickly install Zipic with us. - [Introduction](https://zipic.app/docs/started/introduction.md): Learn the basics of Zipic. - [User Interface](https://zipic.app/docs/started/ui.md): Learn about Zipic's user interface. - [Full docs site](https://docs.zipic.app/llms.txt): canonical Starlight HTML lives here ## Blog (60 English posts, newest first) - [pngoptim Deep Dive: Zipic's PNG Compression Engine for Mac](https://zipic.app/blog/pngoptim-deep-dive.md): See how Zipic uses pngoptim for Mac PNG compression: stable presets, APNG handling, ICNS workflow, and predictable batch results for teams. — 2026-05-22 - [Why Zipic Kept libwebp for WebP but Built Its Own AVIF Encoder](https://zipic.app/blog/why-zipic-uses-libwebp-libavif.md): Zipic keeps Google's libwebp for WebP but built avifoptim after libavif failed to preserve iPhone HDR photos.
