Question 1

Is this safe for sensitive documents?

Accepted Answer

Your files never leave your computer. There's no server storing your images, no database for anyone to hack, nothing uploaded anywhere. You load a file into your browser, process it locally, download the result, and close the tab. That's the whole cycle — no data trail.

Question 2

What formats do you support?

Accepted Answer

JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, TIFF, BMP, GIF, HEIC — basically anything you'd run into day-to-day. SVG too, for vector work. If there's a format I'm missing, let me know and I'll add it.

Question 3

How is this free? What's the catch?

Accepted Answer

No catch. Because everything runs in your browser (your CPU, your RAM), there are almost no server costs. A few ads help cover the domain and hosting. No paywalls, no premium tiers, no usage limits — I built this because I wanted it to exist, not because I wanted to monetize it.

Question 4

Can I process multiple images at once?

Accepted Answer

Yes — the bulk compressor, resizer, and converter all handle batches. Drag in a folder of images and they process in parallel using your hardware. How many depends on your RAM, not on me setting arbitrary limits.

Question 5

Which browsers work best?

Accepted Answer

Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari — latest versions of any of them. Mobile browsers work for basic tasks, but I'd recommend desktop for the heavier tools like background removal or the SVG editor.

Question 6

Does compression reduce image quality?

Accepted Answer

It can, if you push the slider too far. That's why you get a live before/after preview — so you can see exactly what the compression looks like before you download. I use Lanczos resampling for resizing (one of the better algorithms), but ultimately quality is your call with the quality slider.

Question 7

Do I need to create an account?

Accepted Answer

No. No sign-up, no email, no password, no 'verify your account.' Just open the tool and use it. That's it.

Question 8

Is there a file size limit?

Accepted Answer

Not from my end. Your browser's memory is the limit — if you're working with massive files (500MB+ RAW photos), you might run into issues depending on your machine's RAM. For most common use cases (photos, PDFs, documents), it handles them fine.

Question 9

What exactly is this site?

Accepted Answer

A collection of 250+ browser-based tools for images, PDFs, text, JSON, SEO, and more. The key difference from most similar sites: everything runs locally. No files leave your device. I built it because I kept needing these tools and didn't want to upload my personal files to random servers every time.

Question 10

How does the processing actually work?

Accepted Answer

WebAssembly, Canvas API, and a few JavaScript libraries handle the heavy lifting. For AI features (background removal, upscaling), pre-trained models run directly in your browser via ONNX Runtime Web. Your device does the work — my servers never see your data.

Question 11

Who is this for?

Accepted Answer

Developers compressing assets, designers editing images, students converting documents, small business owners handling PDFs — anyone who needs a quick utility without installing software or uploading files. I use it myself for my freelance work.

Question 12

Is there a mobile app?

Accepted Answer

No, and there probably won't be. The site works in any browser, including on phones and tablets, so a separate app would be redundant. Just bookmark it.

Question 13

How is this different from other online tools?

Accepted Answer

No uploads. Most online tools ask you to upload files to their servers, which means they store, process, and potentially mine your data. Here, your file loads into your browser's memory, gets processed locally, and you download the result. I don't have a backend that stores your files — there's nothing for me to harvest or for hackers to target.

Question 14

Does it work offline?

Accepted Answer

Once the page is loaded, yes — the processing runs client-side, so it keeps working even if your internet drops. The initial page load needs a connection, but after that you can disconnect and still use most tools.

Question 15

Why did you build this?

Accepted Answer

I got tired of uploading my tax documents to random PDF merger sites and my personal photos to free image compressors that probably resold my data. I figured if I needed these tools, other people probably did too. So I built them — all local, all private, all free.

Question 16

How does image compression work in the browser?

Accepted Answer

The tool loads your image onto an HTML5 Canvas, applies quality and resizing settings, then exports the compressed result — all locally. No data is sent anywhere. The algorithm handles JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, and more.

Question 17

Can I resize or compress multiple images at once?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the bulk versions of these tools batch-process everything in parallel using WebWorkers. Set uniform dimensions or keep aspect ratios — your choice. For a folder of 50 product photos, it takes a few seconds.

Question 18

What's the max resolution I can work with?

Accepted Answer

Limited by your browser and available RAM. Most modern browsers handle images up to 16,000 x 16,000 pixels, but performance depends on your machine. For extremely large files, close other tabs to free up memory.

Question 19

Do you support WebP and AVIF?

Accepted Answer

Yes, both reading and writing. These formats compress significantly better than JPEG and PNG — AVIF especially is impressive for photos. You can convert any supported format to either one with adjustable quality.

Question 20

How good is the AI background removal?

Accepted Answer

It's surprisingly solid for most images — people, products, animals against relatively clean backgrounds. It struggles a bit with fine details like hair strands or transparent objects (glass, water). For best results, use a well-lit image with good contrast between subject and background.

Question 21

Can I merge PDFs?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Upload multiple PDFs, reorder them by dragging, and merge into one file. You can also select specific page ranges from each document. All processing runs locally using pdf-lib — no uploads.

Question 22

Is PDF editing safe for confidential documents?

Accepted Answer

Completely. PDFs never leave your browser — they're loaded into memory, processed with JavaScript libraries, and the result is downloaded to your machine. No network transmission, no server storage.

Question 23

What document formats can I convert?

Accepted Answer

PDF, Word (DOCX), Excel (XLSX), PowerPoint (PPTX), Markdown, HTML, and plain text. Formatting is preserved as much as possible, though very complex layouts might shift slightly.

Question 24

Can I extract images from a PDF?

Accepted Answer

Yes — you can export each PDF page as a JPG or PNG image. You can also extract embedded images from within the document. Useful for pulling graphics out of presentation PDFs.

Question 25

How do I password-protect a PDF?

Accepted Answer

Upload your PDF, set an owner or user password, and the tool applies encryption locally in your browser. The password never leaves your machine — it's set, encrypted, and saved all within the browser tab.

Question 26

What text tools are available?

Accepted Answer

Keyword extraction, readability scoring, text statistics, case conversion, diff checking, JSON formatting, HTML formatting, and more. All process instantly in your browser. The diff tool is particularly useful for comparing code or document drafts.

Question 27

Can I validate and format JSON?

Accepted Answer

Yes — syntax validation, pretty printing, minification, and tree-view visualization. JSON can also be converted to/from CSV, YAML, and XML. Error highlighting makes it easy to spot malformed data.

Question 28

Is there a tool for comparing text or code?

Accepted Answer

The diff tool does side-by-side and unified views, highlighting additions, deletions, and modifications. You can compare by lines, words, or characters. I use it more than I expected to.

Question 29

Do you have SEO analysis tools?

Accepted Answer

Yes — the SEO Analyzer checks meta tags, heading structure, image alt text, page speed indicators, and more. It works on publicly available page data and gives practical recommendations.

Question 30

How do AI tools run in the browser without a server?

Accepted Answer

ONNX Runtime Web loads pre-trained AI models directly into your browser's memory and executes them using WebAssembly and WebGL acceleration. Your device's GPU does the inference — no server communication happens.

Question 31

Is my data used to train AI models?

Accepted Answer

No, never. Everything runs locally. The models are static pre-trained files that process your data on-device. I never see your images, and neither does any cloud API.

Question 32

What AI features are available?

Accepted Answer

Background removal, image upscaling/enhancement, smart image search, AI tag/watermark removal, and text-to-speech. I add more as browser-based ML technology improves.

Question 33

How good is the AI upscaling?

Accepted Answer

It's a deep learning model trained on diverse images — it reconstructs details that traditional bilinear or bicubic interpolation would just blur. Results depend on the original image quality: noisy or heavily compressed source images will only improve so much.

Question 34

Does this site use cookies or trackers?

Accepted Answer

Minimal cookies for basic functionality + analytics (you can opt out via the consent banner). No tracking cookies, no fingerprinting, no data mining. The analytics are anonymized and privacy-focused.

Question 35

What happens to my files after I close the tab?

Accepted Answer

They're gone. Browser garbage collection clears the memory. I have no server storage, no database of your files, no backups. Your data exists only in temporary browser memory during active use.

Question 36

Is my data encrypted?

Accepted Answer

Since your data never leaves your device, network encryption isn't relevant for the processing itself. The site is served over HTTPS, and all processing happens in your browser's sandboxed environment.

Question 37

Can I use this on a public or shared computer?

Accepted Answer

Yes — no files are uploaded and no personal data is stored. For maximum privacy, close the browser tab after use so temporary files are cleared from memory and cache.

Question 38

Is there a premium version?

Accepted Answer

No, and I don't plan one. All 200+ tools, including AI features, are free. No paywalls, no usage caps, no 'pro' tiers. I built this because tools like this should just exist without subscription fatigue.

Question 39

Can I use this for commercial work?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Use it for personal projects, client work, commercial products — whatever you want. No licensing fees, no attribution required. Processed files are yours.

Question 40

How often are new tools added?

Accepted Answer

Fairly regularly. New ones show up with a 'New' badge so you can spot them easily. I also write about what I'm building on the blog.

Question 41

Can I request a tool or feature?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Reach out through the Contact page or social media. User requests actually drive a lot of what I build — if you need something that doesn't exist yet, tell me.
