Batch studio lets you use any of the five tools on multiple images, with shared settings and per-image adjustments.
Open Batch studio →Can I process a whole batch of images?
Yes. Batch studio works with all five tools: Guided cleanup, Downscale, Repair pixels, Clean palette and Remove background. Add up to 50 images or choose a folder, use shared settings, try one image first, and override settings for individual files. Review the results and download ready PNGs together in one ZIP.
How do free fixes work in a batch?
Each source-image workspace counts as one fix after its first successful result, not one fix for the entire batch. For example, three successfully processed images use three free fixes. Trying the first image also counts when it succeeds. Refinements in that workspace are included for 24 hours. If your free fixes run out, the remaining images stay queued. Pro supports unlimited fixes while subscribed, with the same file and safety limits.
What are the batch limits, and can I come back later?
A batch holds up to 50 static PNG, JPEG or WebP images, with a 10 MiB limit per file, 100 MiB total input, and 2048 pixels per side. Results are held only in this browser session, so download before leaving or refreshing. Processing runs one image at a time, and the queue may briefly wait for safety limits. You can pause after the current image and download the finished files.
Can I batch animation frames or make a shared colour palette?
You can process separate static frames, but SpriteReady does not assemble animation sheets or create one shared palette. Palette cleanup reduces colours independently for each image. Keep Trim empty edges off to preserve empty space around animation frames, and check dimensions and alignment carefully because resizing and pixel repair can change them.
I do not know which tool to choose. Can SpriteReady choose?
Yes. Start with Guided cleanup. It prepares transparency once and lets you combine the useful steps. The examples above are actual engine outputs, so choose the change that looks closest to what you need.
What does “fix uneven pixels” mean?
Some AI art only imitates pixel art. Its coloured blocks are soft and different sizes. SpriteReady looks for the repeated block pattern and redraws it as evenly sized pixels. You can compare the before and after result before downloading.
Why would I clean the colours?
A sprite may appear to use 20 colours but secretly contain hundreds of slightly different shades. Cleaning them makes the art crisper and much easier to edit, recolour, or animate later.
Does SpriteReady upload my images?
No. Image bytes, filenames, raw source hashes, intermediate pixels and exported PNGs stay in your browser. Authentication and billing still use network services.
What counts as a free fix?
One source-image workspace. Multiple tools, settings, refinements and downloads in that workspace count once after the first valid result.
What files are supported?
Static PNG, JPEG and WebP files up to 10 MiB and 2048 pixels per side. Animation, SVG, PSD and Aseprite files are not supported yet.
What if processing fails?
A canceled, timed-out, empty or failed run does not spend a fix. A valid result does spend the fix, even if you decide it is not right for your artwork.
