FAQ
Honest answers
Is the compression quality similar?
Both tools deliver excellent compression for PNG and JPG. Morphix uses Pillow under the hood with format-specific tuning. TinyPNG uses a proprietary quantization algorithm that is slightly better on indexed PNGs. For most photographic content the difference is invisible.
Can I migrate from TinyPNG to Morphix?
Yes. The Morphix API is a single POST endpoint with a Bearer key, similar to TinyPNG's structure. Most integrations require swapping the URL and auth header, then handling the JSON response. We also publish full docs at morphix.tools/api-docs.
Does Morphix have AVIF support?
Yes, full AVIF support for both source and target. TinyPNG does not currently offer AVIF conversion.
