Absolutely. All file conversions happen directly in your web browser using client-side JavaScript. Your files never leave your device, are never uploaded to any server, and we have no technical ability to access them. This ensures complete privacy and security.

No account required! Simply visit our website, select your files, and start converting. No sign-up, no email, no personal information needed.

Currently, we support image conversion to WebP format with advanced options for quality, compression, and resizing. We're actively developing additional converters for JPG, PNG, GIF, and other formats. Check our All Tools page for the latest additions.

There are no artificial limits imposed by us. The only limitation is your browser's capability and your device's available memory. Most modern browsers can handle files up to several hundred megabytes without issues.
