Why Centralized Utility Sites Are Still Useful in 2026

Despite the growth of specialized tools, centralized utility sites still have a place.

The reason is simple:
real workflows are messy.

In a single session you might:

  • convert an image
  • check a document
  • validate numeric data

Jumping between specialized apps for each step slows things down.

That’s why I like having a small set of general-purpose references available.
For basic checks like unit conversions, a page like
https://mmtocm.net

fits naturally into that workflow without adding friction.

Sometimes convenience beats specialization.
