Training: getting teams comfortable with Tinify
Tinify training is short by design, because the tool itself is simple: there isn't a deep feature set to master, just a handful of decisions (resize method, output format, metadata handling) that are easy to get wrong once and then repeat forever. We focus sessions on those decisions rather than padding out a longer curriculum.
Who this is for
Designers and marketers who use the tinypng.com or tinyjpg.com web interface directly, uploading batches of images (the free web tool accepts multiple files per batch, each under its size limit) for one-off compression, alongside developers integrating the API or SDKs into a pipeline. Design teams using the Photoshop or Sketch plugins are covered as their own short module, since the workflow there is different again.
Outcomes and how Tinify shapes delivery
Participants leave knowing the difference between the four resize methods (scale, fit, cover, and thumb) and when each is appropriate, understanding that Tinify's compression is lossy but tuned to be visually close to the original, and knowing that metadata (copyright, GPS, creation date) is stripped by default unless explicitly preserved. For teams with a shared account, we also cover monitoring the monthly compression count in the dashboard so nobody is surprised by hitting the free-tier limit or moving into paid usage.
Typical engagement approach
We run a short hands-on session using your actual images: compressing a batch through the web interface or API, comparing resize methods side by side, and reviewing the account dashboard together so the usage limits and billing model are concrete rather than abstract.
Deliverables
- A short reference guide to the four resize methods and when to use each
- Guidance on format conversion trade-offs between PNG, JPEG, WebP, and AVIF
- Metadata handling guidance for copyright, GPS, or creation-date preservation
- Plugin-specific walkthroughs for Photoshop or Sketch where design teams use them
- A walkthrough of the account dashboard and monthly compression usage tracking
How Tinify adapts to your scope: designers using the web interface need a fifteen-minute walkthrough; developers integrating the API benefit from a working-session format where we build a real call together against your actual images.
