Frequently Asked Questions

How much are service fees?

Service fees depend on migration complexity and the level of support needed. We typically charge around 10% of your infrastructure costs. For context: we helped one customer go from $5,500/month to $800/month total (including our fees). We'll give you a clear quote upfront.

What if I'm using Imgix URLs like mysite.imgix.net?

We'll work with you to convert them. Before migration, we make sure all your current transformations are supported. As a test run, we can start using our URLs for new images first - once you're happy, we'll migrate the existing ones in your database or CMS.

Do I need to change URLs for my existing images?

Depends on your setup:

  • Custom domain (like images.mycompany.com): Nope. Just point your DNS to our CloudFront CDN. Zero code changes.
  • Imgix subdomain (.imgix.net): We'll help update URLs in your database/CMS. We can test with new images first to make sure everything works smoothly.
Can I switch back easily if I'm not satisfied?

Yes. Since we use the same URL patterns as Imgix, switching back is straightforward - just update DNS or revert URLs. We'll help you through it if needed. No lock-in.

Will my existing image transformations still work?

Yep. We support the same query parameters Imgix uses (width, height, format, quality, etc.). Before we start, we'll review your current transformations to confirm everything's covered.

Why is this so much cheaper than Imgix?

We're a small, experienced team building exactly what you need - no enterprise bloat, no features you'll never use. By focusing on the transformations customers actually rely on and running lean on AWS infrastructure, we cut costs dramatically while keeping performance and reliability high.

What image sources do you support?

We support the usual sources like Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, and Cloudflare R2. If you're using something else, let us know - adding support for other sources is trivial and we're happy to work with you on it.
