Paste your SVG on the left, click Optimize, then copy the result from the right.
Use this when an SVG export from a design tool still carries comments, blank lines between tags, or editor-only Inkscape and Sodipodi attributes that do not change how the graphic draws.
Optimize keeps the vector shapes intact while reporting how many bytes you saved. Copy the result into HTML, a CMS field, or a source file. If you need a PNG bitmap instead, use the related SVG to PNG tool after you clean the markup.
