Overview
BIRME, short for Bulk Image Resizing Made Easy, resizes and crops a whole pile of images to one exact size. Drag them in and set the target size, and it processes the whole set. It uses focal detection to keep the busy, detailed part of each picture in frame instead of cutting from the centre. You can draw the crop yourself where it guesses wrong. It also does batch renaming and format conversion to JPG, PNG, WebP or AVIF.
The vendor states your images never leave your computer, because everything runs in your browser, including added AI tools for background removal and enlarging. It is free with no account, and the finished set comes out as a ZIP, single files, or straight into a folder.

When to use
Use BIRME if:
- You have a batch of photos to resize or crop to one exact size, and doing them one at a time is the problem.
- The images are private. Nothing is uploaded, so client photos and unreleased product shots stay on your machine.
- Your crops keep cutting off the subject. Focal detection aims to keep the important part of each picture in frame.
- You need the files named properly. Batch renaming with a pattern and sequential numbers is built in.
- You are preparing images for a website and want WebP or AVIF. It converts and compresses as part of the same pass.
- You want to enlarge a small image or drop its background without sending it anywhere. Both AI tools run on your own machine.
When NOT to use
Skip BIRME if any of these describe you:
- You have one image. Opening a batch tool for a single file is more work than ImageResizer.com or a phone's own crop tool.
- Reducing the file size is the goal. Squoosh is built for that and shows you the trade-off as you go. Compare other image compressors.
- You need cutouts you can rely on at volume. The local background remover is a convenience next to the resizer, not a specialist background remover.
- Your computer is old or your batch is large. The work runs on your machine, so your hardware is the limit rather than a remote server.
- You want to edit the photos, not process them. There is no retouching, colour work or layers here.
Frequently asked questions
Yes. The vendor states it is free to use, needs no signup, and works in a modern browser. There is no paid tier holding back the batch size or the output quality, and the site carries a tip link instead. The AI background removal and enlarging are free on the same terms.
No. The vendor states your images never leave your computer, because the resizing, cropping and even the AI tools run inside your browser. That means your files are never stored on a server. The same applies to client work and unpublished photos.
When you set a target size that does not match a photo's shape, part of the image has to be cropped. BIRME uses focal detection to find the detailed, busy part of the picture and keeps that, rather than always cropping from the centre. If it picks wrong on a particular image, you can draw the crop area yourself for that one.
Because your own computer is doing the work. The vendor notes that the AI features take longer than ordinary resizing because the browser is running larger models. Nothing is uploaded, so the speed depends on your machine rather than a server.
It handles JPG, PNG, WebP and AVIF, and you can convert between them as part of the same batch. WebP and AVIF are the modern web formats, so a set of camera JPGs can come out sized, renamed and converted for a site in one pass.
You can download the whole batch as a single ZIP file, grab files individually, or save them straight into a folder on your machine if your browser supports that. Since nothing was uploaded, the output is generated in the browser.
