WHO IT'S FOR

The "indie dev" tier

Most commercial competitors don't sell a single-user license below $1,000/year. We do — $200/year, full compression capability, single-threaded throughput. Perfect for desktop apps, single-user pro tools, indie SaaS embeds, and edge-of-network compression workflows.

✓ Desktop apps (Win, Mac, Linux)
✓ Single-user pro tools
✓ Indie SaaS where compression runs per-tenant
✓ Edge-of-network compression embeds
✓ Same engine, single-threaded

.NET (C#)

Java

using Abscode.Compression.Client;

var compressor = new ClientCompressor(
  licenseKey: "abs_lic_..."
);

var result = compressor.Compress(
  input: "input.pdf",
  output: "compressed.pdf",
  options: new CompressionOptions {
    TargetDpi = 150,
    PreserveLayout = true
  }
);

CLIENT-SIDE FEATURES

All the core capability — single-threaded

Same compression engine

Identical output quality to Server-side. Layout preserved. PDF/A supported. The throughput is the only difference.

All file formats

PDF, TIFF, JPG, PNG within PDFs. No format-locked-behind-tier model.

DPI & size controls

Full configurability — target DPI, max size, color depth. Same options as Server-side.

Watermark-free output

No watermarks at $200/yr — unlike Free / Developer tier. Production-ready.

Cross-platform

Windows, macOS, Linux. .NET, Java, Node, Go bindings same as Server-side.

Multi-year discounts

3-year: $540 (10% off · save $60). 5-year: $800 (20% off · save $200). Lock in pricing.

Ready to scale up?

If you outgrow single-threaded throughput — production server deployment, batch pipelines, multi-tenant workloads — the Server-side tier ($1,200/yr/server) uses the same engine multi-threaded. Existing client-side licenses can be credited toward server-side upgrade.
