Cloudinary Alternative for teams who just need URLs.
Cloudinary is a powerhouse for on-the-fly transformations. ImageToURL is the lightweight alternative: free hosting, global CDN, permanent URLs — without the transformation engine you're not using.
How to switch
Export from Cloudinary
Download your source assets from Cloudinary's Media Library.
Upload here
Drop files into ImageToURL to host them on Cloudflare's global CDN.
Swap the URLs
Find-replace Cloudinary URLs in your codebase with the new URLs.
When ImageToURL wins
Pre-processed images
If you already use sharp or Pillow at build time, you don't need Cloudinary's URL transforms — just a CDN.
Blog and portfolio
For sites serving static images at known sizes, Cloudinary's $99/mo floor is hard to justify. ImageToURL covers it for $12.
No vendor lock-in
Cloudinary URLs bake transformations into the path. ImageToURL URLs are dumb CDN paths — portable.
Quick shares
Dev screenshots, design handoffs, bug repros — drop, copy URL, paste. No dashboard to navigate.
