FAQ

Quick answers

How do I strip SVG metadata online?
Paste your SVG and click Strip metadata. The tool removes metadata elements and common editor attributes, then keeps the artwork intact.
What counts as SVG metadata here?
Things like metadata blocks, Inkscape or Sodipodi attributes, Sketch namespaces, data-name labels, and enable-background leftovers from exports.
Will stripping metadata change how the SVG looks?
No. Visual shapes, fills, and strokes stay the same. Only non-rendering editor baggage is removed.
Is SVG metadata safe to delete before shipping icons?
Usually yes for production assets. Keep a source file if you still need editor-only layer data.
