The batch job you were about to write a script for.
Resize, convert, cut out, repeat — for a folder, on a laptop, once a month. It is forty lines of glue code and a dependency you will have to update, or it is a chain you set once.
- You start with
- A folder
- You end up with
- One ZIP
How it goes
2 steps
Each one is a tool you can open on its own. The order is the part worth keeping.
-
Image resizer
Add the steps you would have written, in order.
-
Image converter
Point the chain at a folder and take the ZIP. The steps that run locally have no limit on how many files go through them.
What you will need
The tools this uses
Background remover
Cut the subject out of any photo and download a transparent PNG.
Image compressor
Make images smaller, with the real size shown first and never a bigger file.
Answers
Questions people ask
Which steps cost anything?
Only the ones that leave the machine. Background removal is metered; resizing, converting and compressing are not, because they run on your own device.
Can I save a chain and reuse it?
Yes — that is what the builder is for. The chain is yours; the folder changes.
What happens on a file that fails?
It is reported by name rather than dropped, so a short ZIP is never a silent one.

No account needed, no watermark, and nothing to install.
