Imagify
Imagify is the image optimisation service from WP Media, the makers of WP Rocket. It compresses images automatically on upload with a choice of levels (Normal, Aggressive, Ultra), converts to WebP and AVIF, resizes oversized images, and can bulk-optimise an existing library, all from a straightforward WordPress plugin.
Visit Imagify ↗HOW IT WORKS
Its natural fit is alongside WP Rocket: the two together cover the two biggest performance levers, caching and image weight, from one vendor with a consistent experience. A free monthly quota makes it easy to start, with subscriptions for higher volume.
As an image tool it pairs with a caching plugin and a CDN for a full stack. Its closest competitors are ShortPixel and Optimole; Imagify's edge is the tight WP Rocket integration and a clean, simple interface.
Category context: Compresses images and converts them to WebP/AVIF. Images are usually the heaviest part of a page, so this is a fast win.

What is Imagify?
Imagify is an image optimisation service from WP Media, the team behind WP Rocket. It compresses images automatically on upload, converts them to WebP and AVIF, resizes oversized images, and can bulk-optimise an existing media library, all through a simple WordPress plugin with a free monthly quota.
How much does Imagify cost?
Imagify offers a free monthly quota of image data, then paid plans from around $9.99 per month that increase the quota. It bills by the volume of image data optimised, so cost scales with how many and how large your images are.
Should I use Imagify with WP Rocket?
They pair naturally because both are made by WP Media, giving you caching and image optimisation, the two biggest performance levers, from one vendor with a consistent interface. That said, Imagify works fine alongside any caching plugin, and ShortPixel or Optimole are strong alternatives if you prefer a different pricing model or a bundled CDN.
