Show HN: Kompressr – One Step CDN which optimizes all your files

2•kompressr•1h ago
In my previous organization, we went from a monolith to multiple FE & BE repos & then wanted Image Optimization, which took more than a year for us to get it right & even then it was not fully done for old images!!

At first it looks like "we just need image optimization." Then the scope grows:

- existing site assets need a CDN path - uploads need storage and permanent URLs

I saw the pain & the thought of Kompressr was born. Kompressr is my attempt to make that pipeline boring & make things just work!

There are two live paths:

1. Prepend a project CDN URL to assets you already host:

    https://cdn.kompressr.com/PROJECT_ID/https://example.com/hero.jpg
2. Upload a file directly and get back a CDN URL:

    curl -X POST https://uploads.kompressr.com/api/upload \
      -H "Authorization: Bearer $KOMPRESSR_API_KEY" \
      -F file=@output.png
The returned URL is usable immediately. If Kompressr already has an optimized version, it serves that. If not, the original goes out first while optimization runs in the background.

It handles images, video, PDFs, fonts, CSS, JS, HTML, SVG, JSON, and XML on paid plans. Free tier starts with image optimization.

For AI apps, the Upload API can be the file layer: upload generated output, store it, optimize it, and hand your user a permanent URL.

There is also an MCP server (`npx -y @kompressr/mcp-server`) if you want agents to upload files directly.

Pricing is storage + bandwidth, not per-transformation.

Autopilot is coming next for the no-code path, where you point your domain to Kompressr & all assets are optimized.

Free tier: 250 optimizations, no credit card.
