No store? It works on any WordPress site too, for the Featured Images of your posts and pages.<\/p>\n\n<p>Heavy product photos are the number one cause of slow WooCommerce stores. Xray fixes this at the source: every image you add through the Studio is optimized <em>before<\/em> it ever reaches your catalog, so your pages stay light, your <strong>Core Web Vitals<\/strong> stay green and your <strong>Google PageSpeed Insights<\/strong> score goes up.<\/p>\n\n<p>Managing a product catalog shouldn't be a full-time job. With Xray you eliminate the round-trip through Photoshop or online compressors and centralise <strong>image compression<\/strong>, cropping and <strong>image SEO<\/strong> inside a native WooCommerce interface.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Why store owners choose Xray<\/h3>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Built for WooCommerce, not bolted on.<\/strong> The optimizer lives on the product edit screen, next to the Featured Image and Gallery, exactly where you work.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Real image compression + WebP conversion.<\/strong> JPG and PNG uploads are compressed and saved as WebP on the fly, typically cutting file weight by 60-80% with no visible quality loss. Your original file is kept as a backup.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Faster LCP and PageSpeed.<\/strong> Lighter product images mean a faster Largest Contentful Paint on shop and product pages, which helps both conversions and SEO.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Image SEO metadata in one place.<\/strong> Set Alt Text, Title, Caption and Description for every image from the Studio, and let Xray rename files from <code>IMG_4921.jpg<\/code> to <code>blue-running-shoe.webp<\/code> for Google Images.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Before\/After preview.<\/strong> An interactive slider shows exactly what compression did before you save.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Smart auto-crop &amp; resize.<\/strong> Force a clean 1:1 ratio and cap oversized images so your grid stays consistent and your server stays happy.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Works on any WordPress site.<\/strong> WooCommerce is not required: set optimized WebP Featured Images on standard posts and pages too.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3>Free vs PRO<\/h3>\n\n<p>The free version optimizes every image you upload or edit through the Xray Studio.
