Any alternatives for statically.io

Looking for alternatives for statically.io. Statically.io is good, but I wish to know whether any similar services are there which is having better performance or features. Image resizing and webp compression is my most loved feature.

BunnyCDN (aff link) has Bunny Optimizer which does WebP compression, image resizing, etc. But the pricing is quite high ($9.5/mo on top of normal CDN fees).
You could however, use BunnyCDN on top of statically (put "https://cdn.statically.io/img/mydomain.com" as the origin, and enable browser WebP support on cache key), but I wouldn't recommend that.
Gumlet is another option, which is still expensive, but does include CDN. However, Gumlet CDN's performance would be worse than Statically, and you should use the higher end plan to get Cloudfront access.
TBH I'm not sure why Statically isn't setting Cloudflare to cache images and just proxy it, especially since they seem to be on the enterprise plan. Cloudflare's CDN is superior to fastly IMO
How many images/month are you looking at? Are you only looking at
image compression
Or
Resizing
Or
CDN
Or
URL based transformation
Or
All of the above?
Depending on need, there are
Options aplenty:

From Optimole (500/month) to Tinypng CDN (Super pricey) to Shortpixel AI (who use Stackpath IIRC) etc.
