SVG Optimizer
Minify SVG markup and optionally export a data URL for embedding.
About this tool
Minify SVG markup and optionally export a data URL for embedding. Quick payload size checks, text cleanup, and deploy prep during development.
Paste SVG markup (icons, logos, or exported illustrations). Choose Minified SVG or Data URL output. Example — Minify a simple icon: try `<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <!-- mark --> <circle cx="10" cy="10" r="5" /> </svg>` and expect something like `<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"><circle cx="10" cy="10" r="5"/></svg>`.
Lightweight minify only — not a full SVGO pass (no path simplification or unused ID removal). See also: Image to Base64, Favicon Generator, and HTML Minifier. Runs in your browser — nothing you paste gets uploaded.
How to use
- Paste SVG markup (icons, logos, or exported illustrations).
- Choose Minified SVG or Data URL output.
- Click Optimize to strip comments and collapse whitespace.
- Copy the result into HTML, CSS backgrounds, or component libraries.

- Does not sanitize hostile SVG scripts — treat untrusted markup carefully.
