⚡ TWO DIFFERENT PROBLEMS. TWO DIFFERENT PRODUCTS. ONE BUILDER.
What if your everyday software didn't need to be complicated?
One tool for your images.
One tool for your files.
Both built under Akhouri Systems.
Not a bundle.
Not two versions of the same idea.
Two completely different products — built around two very different problems.
🟢 01 — APIC WEB
Advanced Image Processing Center
Your image enters.
You work on it.
Your browser does the processing.
That's the idea.
APIC Web is an image-processing workspace designed to let you edit, convert, compress, and remove image backgrounds directly in your browser.
And one of its biggest principles?
Your image doesn't need to be uploaded to some random server just to perform basic image processing.
The APIC Web implementation includes browser-side image processing and an on-device background-removal pipeline.
🖼️ EDIT
Work with your image directly inside the browser.
🔄 CONVERT
Change image formats without turning the task into a software-installation project.
📦 COMPRESS
Reduce image size when you need a lighter file.
✂️ REMOVE BACKGROUND
Use the built-in background-removal workflow powered by MediaPipe running in the browser.
🌐 NO INSTALLATION
Open the web app and start working.

🔐 02 — ATLOCK v4
Windows File Security
Now switch contexts.
Your images are one problem.
Your private files are another.
That's where ATLOCK comes in.
ATLOCK v4 is the current public version of the ATLOCK series.
Its job isn't to make your image prettier.
Its job is to help protect the files that shouldn't be casually accessible.
🔒 File locking
🛡️ Security-focused workflows
⚡ Windows-first experience
📁 Designed around protecting personal files
And ATLOCK isn't being presented as some magical security system.
Security software has boundaries.
The underlying ATLOCK architecture itself explicitly recognizes limitations such as local same-user attackers, best-effort memory wiping, and the limits of secure shredding on SSDs.
That's intentional.
Security software should be honest about what it can — and cannot — guarantee.
🧩 TWO PRODUCTS. TWO USE CASES.
| 🟢 APIC Web | 🔐 ATLOCK v4 | |
|---|---|---|
| Purpose | Image processing | File security |
| Platform | Web browser | Windows |
| Core idea | Work with images | Protect files |
| Installation | ❌ Not required | ✅ Desktop application |
| Focus | Creativity + productivity | Privacy + security |
| Built by | Akhouri Systems | Akhouri Systems |
Different problems.
Different architectures.
Different experiences.
Same philosophy: build software that actually does something useful.
🚀 TRY BOTH

🔐 Need to protect files on Windows?

WHY BUILD TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT PRODUCTS?
Because software doesn't have to stay inside one category.
One project can solve an image problem.
Another can solve a security problem.
And the interesting part isn't that they're different.
It's that both started from the same question:
"Can I build a tool that makes this problem easier?"
That's the mindset behind Akhouri Systems.
Don't build another dashboard just because dashboards are popular.
Find the problem.
Build the tool.
Ship it.
Improve it.
Repeat.
🔥 WHICH ONE WOULD YOU TRY FIRST?
🟢 APIC Web — if you work with images
or
🔐 ATLOCK v4 — if you care about protecting files
Tell me which one you'd actually use — and what feature you'd want added next.
Built by Akhouri Systems.
APIC Web → Image processing in your browser.
ATLOCK v4 → File security for Windows.
Two products.
Two problems.
One builder.

The background and button text feel straining on the eyes. For a site focused on image editing, the visuals are a bit uncomfortable.
xulingfeng is now in testing mode ON.
you tested AI CODE MENTOR KODA too, now APIC too in same line
LOL.
and yeah visuals will be soon fixed thanks for reality check.
but all other things are working great right?
APIC is outperforming benchmarks of many global giant image editing online tools(source: CLAUDE, GPT, GEMINI, GROK) I gave my code to AI's and tell them brutually compare it with today's global giants in online image tools and APIC outperformed many of them and in some matched them
by the you can use it in dark mode too try it.
Suppose I’m just a lazy user who doesn’t care about privacy. I don’t want to click through all those parameter controls. Wouldn’t it be much faster if I could edit an image just by typing one sentence?
There are many desktop local image editors already. More practically, plenty of mobile apps and even the native phone camera apps support photo editing. So where is your edge?
Or is this type of user not your target audience? Do you have any related plans?
it is built for different users. like this---
"I need to convert this to an ICO or WebP format, or remove a background, without uploading my company’s confidential data to a random free website."
Many free online converters or BG removers silently harvest your images. APIC runs entirely on-device via WebAssembly. You can convert to WebP/ICO or remove a background with 100% certainty that the image never left your machine.
like in simple words: it is for privacy focused people, army officials, and precision-seeking users.
it is not for those who wants a prompt box.
it is for those who wants precision & privacy ..... more.
I'm looking for more local possible workflows for APIC.
"PRIVACY" makes Akhouri Systems different.
others wants to eat your data, we wants to protect your data.
Does APIC support batch processing at the moment?
nope.
As a QA who often sits in product requirement review meetings and loves to dig for edge cases, I have a question. In this era where AI image editing tools are so accessible, what are the standout strengths of your image tool website? What will attract users? More practically, what’s your plan for monetization down the line?
Privacy.
currently no big giant online image editing tool is privacy first, nothing leaves your device, no cloud
monetization: honestly I've not yet planned it.
if you've any idea then give me. it will genuinely help me to think
currently all online image tools need your data, your image will be send to their server and eventually leave your device.
but APIC doesn't
nothing goes to server.
PRIVACY 10/10
I uploaded JPEG images, but after editing and exporting, they turn into PNG. Also, all exported files have fixed filenames instead of keeping the original names. Is this the current behavior?
bug fixed now check it out
and thanks for telling me bug
