What is PixPack?
PixPack is a native macOS image compressor published by Nuanyue. It compresses a single image, a selection or an entire folder tree in one pass, shows a live before-and-after preview, and exports the batch to a chosen folder in a selectable output format. Every image is processed locally, so files are never uploaded to a server and no account is required. It is a paid, Mac-only app.

Live Preview and Format Conversion
Pick an output format and quality setting, watch the before-and-after update live, then export the whole batch to any folder.
Local-Only Processing
Every pixel is processed on your Mac. Nothing is uploaded to a server and no account is required.
