SVG Optimizer
Paste your inline SVG, get a tighter version with exact byte counts — comments stripped, whitespace collapsed, and your path data left 100% untouched so nothing changes on screen.

Optimized
How it works
Safe minification
Remove the throwaway
Comments, the XML declaration and doctype never render. Stripping them is the first easy win — and the only completely risk-free one.
Collapse whitespace
Most SVGs are formatted for humans. This pass squeezes indentation and blank lines between tags into nothing, without ever touching real attribute values.
Render-safe by design
Path data is left alone — rewriting commands can silently break icons. You get a real size drop with zero visual risk.
Questions
SVG optimizer FAQ
Will the optimized SVG render identically?
Yes. Only comments, the XML/doctype header and inter-tag whitespace are removed, and attribute values are never altered — the output draws exactly like the input.
Why is path data not compressed?
Compressing path commands (e.g. dropping decimals, collapsing separators) requires re-validating each shape to avoid subtle distortion. This tool stays conservative so there is zero risk of a changed icon.
Where should I use the output?
Inline in HTML or a web component, embedded as a background-image data URI, or in an icon font build. With whitespace gone, pages weigh less and paste-time is unbeatable.
