How it works

Three steps. No server in the middle.

Every step happens inside this page, on your own device. Your file never has anywhere else to go — there is no upload step by design.

STEP 01
You pick a file

The moment you choose a file, your browser reads it directly. Nothing leaves your device at this step — the file goes into this page, not to us.

File enters your browser
STEP 02
Your computer does the work

Compression, merging and conversion all happen inside this page, using your own processor. There is no server picking up the file behind the scenes.

Work runs on your device
STEP 03
You download the result

The finished file shows up as a download in your browser. It only exists on your machine — and it disappears the moment you close the tab.

Result saves locally
The proof: turn off your internet after the page loads — the tools still work. They can't send your files anywhere because there is nowhere for them to go.

Workflows where document privacy matters

The original use case was scanned IDs and bank statements. The architecture suits anything you’d rather not hand to a stranger’s server.

Architecture

Privacy isn’t a setting. It’s the architecture.

Every tool runs in your browser tab. Files are read, processed and written locally. There’s no server for them to hit — and that’s the point.

From the author

Why this exists

I built this for myself. I had stacks of scanned documents — bank statements, ID copies, medical records — that I needed to merge, compress and convert. The popular sites all wanted me to upload those files to their servers first.

Reading the privacy policies didn't help. “We delete after 24 hours” means nothing when the file already touched their disk, their logs, their backups, and maybe their AI training pipeline along the way.

So I built the tool I wanted: one that does all the work in the browser, where the file came from. No upload, no temporary copies, no “trust us” — just code running on your machine, using your CPU, with your file.

If that's what you wanted too, you're in the right place.

FAQ

Questions worth answering directly

Is my file actually uploaded anywhere?+
No. Everything happens in JavaScript running in your browser tab. The image or PDF you choose never travels to a server — not ours, not anyone else’s. Open your browser’s Network tab while using a tool: no file payloads leave the page.
Is it really free? What’s the catch?+
It’s free. No signup, no watermark, no “download after sharing.” A paid desktop app for fully offline use is in development, but the web tools will remain free.
Why should I trust you over a larger vendor?+
You shouldn’t — you should trust the architecture. The site is statically built and processes everything client-side. Even if we wanted to peek at files, the code that runs on your machine doesn’t upload them. For sensitive documents, that property matters more than any vendor’s policy.
Do you track anything?+
Google Analytics records pageviews, scrolls and clicks so we can see which tools people use. We never log file contents, filenames, or anything you type. Opt out anytime from the privacy page.
Does this work offline?+
The first load needs internet to fetch the page. After that, the tools mostly work offline. A dedicated desktop app for fully offline use is in development.
