Free tools that run inside your browser

They're free, there's no sign-up, and the work is done by your own computer, so your files never go anywhere

An open laptop on a desk with the browser in the foreground

Merge PDFs

Put several PDFs together into a single document. You put them in the order you want with the arrows and download one file, handy for attachments, invoices and scans that arrived in pieces

Open Merge PDFs

Photos into a PDF

Turn the photos of a document into a tidy PDF, one image per page, for when someone asks you for the PDF and all you have are the shots you took with your phone

Open Photos into a PDF

Compress images

Make your images lighter when the portal won't take them or the email is too heavy, you decide how hard to squeeze and you see straight away how much you saved

Open Compress images

Convert images

Change the format of your images, from PNG to JPG, from WebP to PNG and the other way round, with the limits stated up front, the iPhone HEIC files only if you open the page on an iPhone or a Mac, camera RAW files never

Open Convert images

Vectorize

Take a logo in PNG or JPG and get an SVG out of it that you can enlarge without it going blocky, it works on drawings with a few clean colors, on photographs it doesn't and there's no point trying

Open Vectorize

None of these tools uploads your files, the work happens in the browser, we see nothing

Why we give them away, said plainly: these tools are the same building blocks we use when we build custom automation for companies, reading a PDF, merging it, shrinking an image, pulling out a piece of data. If you need them once in a while, use them for free and that's that, we ask nothing in return. But if someone in the office redoes this work every day, by hand, dozens of times, then a tool is not what you need, it's a process to automate, and that's our trade.

What people usually ask us

No, every tool on this page works inside your browser, on your computer, the files never leave for any server and we never see them, if you want the proof open the tool you need, unplug the wifi and use it anyway, it keeps working because the work is done by the machine in front of you
There's no catch, we don't ask for your email, there's no sign-up and we set no daily file limit, these tools are the same pieces we use when we build custom automation for companies, keeping them online costs us little and they show how we work better than any presentation, and if you do have a repetitive process to automate we can talk about it, otherwise just use them
Yes, they work on phones and tablets with an up-to-date browser, you pick the files from your gallery or your documents and you download the result just like on a computer, the one difference is that a phone has less memory than a computer, so with very heavy files or a great many of them it can slow down or stop, in that case it's better to work in smaller batches

If the same job comes back every day, it isn't a tool any more

Opening a page and sorting out a couple of files now and then is perfectly fine. But if every morning someone downloads the attachments, converts them, renames them and uploads them into the business software, that's a process, and a machine can do it instead
