No sign-up. No account. No unnecessary cloud upload.</p> <p>I made it <strong>free for everyone to use</strong>.</p> <p>🔒 <strong>Your files stay on your device.</strong><br> ⚡ <strong>Processing happens in your browser.</strong><br> 🚫 <strong>No sign-up required.</strong></p> <p>Try it out: <strong><a href="https://opentool.tech" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://opentool.tech</a></strong></p> <p>Privacy shouldn't be a premium feature.</p> <h1> opentool </h1> <h1> opentool.tech </h1> privacy sideprojects tools web
