I need a tool to process multiple images at once for a client website. The main requirements are:
- add a watermark to each image
- reduce file size / apply compression for web use
- handle batches of images efficiently
Is there software that can do both batch watermarking and image compression?

The canonical utility for batch image processing is ImageMagick. Its convert command/component can change format, change compression parameters, and add text to a picture. It is free, open source, and can be used either as a command-line utility or as a library with binding for all major languages (Java, PHP, Python...).

Yes. Two commonly used options mentioned are ImageMagick and XnView MP.
ImageMagick is a well-known batch image-processing tool. It can convert formats, adjust compression settings, resize images, and add text or watermark overlays. It’s free, open source, and works especially well if you’re comfortable with command-line tools or want to automate the process.
XnView MP is another option with batch conversion features through a graphical interface. You can select multiple images, then apply actions such as resize and watermark, and export the processed files.
If you want automation or scripting, ImageMagick is a strong choice. If you prefer a GUI-based workflow, XnView MP may be easier to use.
