MiCompress for Flow Launcher
Compress images, PDFs, video, audio, documents & archives right from
Flow Launcher, powered by
micompress.com.
Usage
mc C:\Users\me\Pictures\photo.jpg
Type mc followed by a file path (Explorer's Copy as path works — quotes are stripped), pick a preset
(Recommended, Lossless or Extreme) and press Enter. An optimized photo-min.jpg is written next
to the original; the original file is never modified.
Install
From Flow Launcher: pm install MiCompress
API key (optional)
Small files work without an account. For bigger files and a monthly allowance, paste your personal API key
(mc_…, shown on your account page — creating an account is free) into
Settings → Plugins → MiCompress → API key. Alternatively set the MICOMPRESS_API_KEY environment variable;
the plugin setting wins if both are present.
| Plan | Compressions per month | Notes |
|---|
| No key (anonymous) | Anonymous limits | Small files only |
| Free account | 50 via the API | Files up to 100 MB |
| Plus ($9.99/mo) | 1,000 | Shared with website usage |
| Pro ($19.99/mo) | 5,000 | Shared with website usage |
When the allowance is used up the plugin shows the server's quota message with a link to
micompress.com/plans.
How it works
The selected file is uploaded over HTTPS to micompress.com, compressed there, and the result is downloaded
back. No account is needed within the anonymous size limits. Uploaded files are deleted from the server
automatically — see the privacy policy.
Supported formats include JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, AVIF, HEIC, TIFF, SVG, RAW, PDF, MP4, MOV, MP3, WAV, DOCX,
XLSX, PPTX, EPUB, ZIP, 7Z and more.
