Transform your WordPress site’s media performance with Flux Media Optimizer. Compress images, convert to next-gen formats (WebP & AVIF), optimize videos with modern formats (AV1, WebM), and serve media through a global CDN, all while maintaining the visual quality your visitors expect.

All core features are available in the free version. Gain additional benefits including offloaded processing, global CDN delivery, and advanced compression algorithms when you purchase a license.

Professional-Grade Media Optimization

Flux Media Optimizer boosts your site’s performance metrics and Google PageSpeed Insights scores with intelligently compressed and optimized media, including animated GIFs and supported HEIC/HEIF stills converted to WebP and AVIF. Rare animated HEIF sequences can preserve animation in WebP when supported by FFmpeg. Real-world performance improvements translate directly to better user experiences, higher engagement, and improved search rankings.

Key Features:

• Modern Image Formats – Creates WebP and/or AVIF outputs based on Settings (both enabled by default)
• Smart Format Serving – Direct URL replacement by default; optional experimental hybrid <picture> serving
• Video Optimization – FFmpeg-powered AV1 (MP4 container) and WebM generation with size & quality controls
• GIF Support – Full support for static and animated GIFs with animation preservation (Imagick required for local animated GIF conversion)
• HEIC/HEIF Support – Static HEIC/HEIF files convert when Imagick can decode them; libheif 1.18.2+ is recommended for modern iOS HDR/gain-map photos. Rare animated HEIF sequences become animated WebP when WebP and compatible FFmpeg support are available, with static first-frame output otherwise. Apple Live Photos (HEIC + MOV) are not supported as combined assets.
• Automatic Processing – Convert on upload and bulk process existing media with one click
• Quality Control – Configurable quality settings with version-specific AVIF optimization
• Individual File Controls – Disable or manually reconvert individual files for granular control
• Media Library Status – Optimization column and filters in the Media Library list view (Optimized, Pending, Failed, Disabled, Unprocessed)
• Gutenberg Block Integration – View image compression information directly in image blocks
• WordPress Integration – Seamless integration with galleries, responsive images, and all WordPress image functions
• Optimize Supported Image Files – Supports JPEG, PNG, GIF, and HEIC/HEIF sources when required server libraries are available.
• No Limits – Optimize all of your images and videos up to your server’s capabilities
• Global CDN Delivery (License Only) – Optimized assets stored on Flux’s Google Cloud CDN, ensuring lightning-fast delivery worldwide
• Offloaded Processing (License Only) – Heavy image/video conversion tasks handled by external service, reducing load on your server
• Secure Integration – Uses license key authentication and secure webhooks for reliable communication

Perfect for:
