Free online tools. Private by design.

Resize, compress, convert, and manage files directly in your browser.

Your files never leave your device.

How local processing works

The website itself is a normal set of pages: your browser downloads HTML, CSS, and JavaScript from the host. After that, the tools use those scripts and browser features such as Canvas to work on files you already have. They do not post file contents to an application server.

  1. Open a resizer, compressor, converter, PDF tool, or the QR generator. Each page explains what it can and cannot do.

  2. Select a file or type text. Processing happens locally. After this page has loaded, that work does not need a network connection. Encrypted or damaged PDFs are rejected instead of being sent elsewhere to “fix.”

  3. Save the new image, PDF, or QR code. Temporary previews are released from memory when you leave the page or start over.

Frequently asked questions

Do my files get uploaded?

No. Image and PDF tools read the file you select and process it in your browser. The file contents are not sent to LocalTools or to a conversion service.

Are the tools free?

Yes. There is no account and no subscription. The site may show clearly labeled display ads in the future, but ads are not enabled in this version.

Which browsers are supported?

Current versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge, including their supported mobile browsers. JavaScript must be enabled because the tools run on your device.

Will using a tool make my original file disappear?

No. Each tool creates a new download. The file on your device is left unchanged.
