About FileTools

FileTools is a collection of free, browser-based file tools: image compressors, PDF utilities, video converters and a QR code generator. Every tool runs entirely on your device using your browser's own processing power — nothing is uploaded to a server.

Why local processing?

Most online file tools require you to upload your photos, documents or videos to a remote server before you get anything back. That's slow, and it means a stranger's server briefly has a copy of your file. FileTools avoids that entirely by using modern browser technology (Canvas, WebAssembly) to do the same work locally.

How we're funded

FileTools is free to use and supported by advertising and, on some pages, affiliate links to tools we recommend. See our Privacy Policy for details on the cookies and data involved.
