FAQ
Honest answers
Is Morphix as private as Squoosh?
Squoosh runs entirely in your browser, so images never leave your device. Morphix uploads images to our servers, processes them, and deletes them after one hour. For sensitive content prefer Squoosh. For everyday work Morphix is faster and adds batch / API capability.
Can Morphix replace Squoosh in my CI pipeline?
Yes via the public API on the Pro plan. You can call POST /api/v1/convert from any CI script, with a 10 req/s rate limit. Squoosh has a CLI but it requires Node + WASM locally.
Why does Morphix not let me see the visual diff?
It is a roadmap item. The current focus is fast batch conversion and SEO-friendly per-pair pages. A visual A/B slider is planned for an upcoming release.
