imgproxy

An amazing product, I use it to process thumbnails on chirr.app and it works flawlessly 👌 One of those services that you install, configure, and forget. It just works.

👋 Salut, Product Hunt, Sergey here, creator of imgproxy!

At one time, we had the need to resize literally millions of user-generated images every day, and thus, imgproxy was born out of necessity. Back then, none of the existing solutions fit our speed and security requirements, so we had no choice but to create our own.

Today, imgproxy is trusted by thousands of users on projects of different scales — from eBay and Photobucket, to numerous startups — because it reduces costs and removes the restrictive requirement for saved images to conform to specific formats.

Our selection of 55+ features is guided by 15 years of 🧑‍💻 experience backed by machine learning expertise and includes:

🕵️‍♀️ Object detection
🎥 Video thumbnail generation
🎨 Color adjustment
💫 Auto-quality
😎 Advanced optimizations
✍️ Watermarking
🐛🦋 GIF to MP4 conversion

The open source version of imgproxy will remain FREE FOREVER, and for many businesses, that’s all will ever be needed.

But imgproxy Pro takes you further and goes way beyond the basic features and simple optimizations. Version 3.0 is packed with some highly-requested machine learning features, including object-oriented crop gravity, blurring, drawing detection, and auto-quality by SSIM.

There are a bunch of technologies out there that solves a problem in a very elegant way while being rock-solid. These are the technologies you want to build your business on and ImgProxy is one of them. At Iconfinder we switched to ImgProxy for all rendering of PNGs and other formats and we are very happy about the switch. I can only recommend ImgProxy to others.

Built as a standalone image proxying tool, imgproxy replaces all the image resizing code inside your web applications (such as image processing tools, or resizing libraries). It takes advantage of probably the most efficient image processing library out there—libvips. It is supersonically fast, plus it comes with a tiny memory footprint. And, thanks to libvips, we can quickly and promptly process a massive amount of images. imgproxy is packaged in a finely-tuned and updated Docker image that's ready to be deployed to your production environment. Unlike other image processing tools (where a number of different operations are required for installation) imgproxy just takes 3 steps to launch: 1️. Install imgproxy. 2️. Upload images directly to the cloud or your cluster. 3. Request images by specifying parameters in the request URL. We also provide some out-of-the box security features: — Image/zip bombs 💣detection and neutralization. — Cryptographic signatures for imgproxy URLs. — Authorization by HTTP header prevents direct use of your imgproxy server while also allowing a CDN or caching server to access it.

great solution <3

Congrats on the launch

?makers this is one of the coolest products that I have seen on PH. Brilliant job. Love that I can play with it right on the landing page.
