Tools that keep
your files yours.

Nine things that do one job each. Six of them read what you drop in without sending it anywhere — the conversion, the disk search, the metadata, the hidden characters, the clinical record — because a tool that has to upload your file first is a service, not a utility. The two that do use the network say exactly what leaves.

Pick a door

Deadline The countdown ledger A wall of honest clocks computed on the page — equinoxes, solstices, the full moon, clock changes, tax day, the 2038 problem — and your own dates, kept in your browser. Courier Send a file, browser to browser A file goes browser to browser over WebRTC with no server in between, and a streaming SHA-256 at both ends proves it arrived whole. Diff & Crate Compare two files, open a zip Compare any two files — texts by line and word, images by slider and pixel heat — and open a zip, all without sending anything. File Search Search your own disk, in the browser Six name modes, path and content grep, size, date and type filters, duplicate detection, three views and a hand-written ZIP. Nothing is uploaded. OmniFile Drop files, get them in another format Files, a folder or a ZIP, read for what each one is from its bytes rather than its name, then converted through Canvas and FFmpeg in the page. File Share A big file, a link, and an expiry Drop it, get a branded short link and a QR code, expiring in one to 72 hours. Optional password, no account, only the link mapping kept here. Search Thirteen feeds asked at once Keyless federated search with per-source timings, quick answers for crypto, currency and weather, and one-tap handoff to seven assistants. Glass A darkroom for one photograph The container parsed byte by byte — JPEG markers, TIFF/EXIF, PNG chunks, RIFF, ISO-BMFF — every field’s hex offset, and a plain word for GPS. Watermark What the text carries that you cannot see Eight detectors read a pasted string character by character: invisible controls, smuggled payloads, lookalike letters and bidi, with offsets.

What they share

Your file does not leave.

Six of these seven read what you give them entirely in the page — the conversion, the search, the metadata, the hidden characters, the clinical record. The two that do use the network say exactly what leaves and for how long. A tool that has to upload your file first is a service, not a utility.
