Wait — how does it work without uploading?
WebAssembly lets us run the same C++ libraries that professional desktop apps use (libvips, ffmpeg, pdf-lib) directly inside your browser. Your files are processed by your CPU, right here in this tab, without sending anything anywhere.

ConvertYard uses WebAssembly to run conversion libraries directly in your browser. Your files are processed locally by your CPU and never sent to any server.
It depends on your device's memory. Most browsers can handle files up to ~2GB. We surface a clear warning when a file is too large.
We've tested up to 1,000+ files per batch. The practical limit depends on your device. Older phones may handle fewer; modern laptops handle thousands.
No. We never see your files, so we can't store anything about them. All conversion runs in your browser — no file data, filenames, or contents ever reach our servers.
Yes. Display ads appear below the FAQ on tool pages and within articles. They never appear inside the conversion flow, above the fold, or anywhere they'd get in your way. Your files are still processed entirely locally — ads and file processing are completely separate systems.
Two things, kept completely separate. Your files: 100% local — all conversion runs in your browser via WebAssembly and nothing ever reaches our servers. Site analytics: yes, we use Google Analytics (loaded only after you accept the cookie banner) to measure which tools are popular and to build the verified traffic data required to apply to premium ad networks like Mediavine. That ad revenue is how we keep every tool free with no signups or watermarks. Ad networks may set their own cookies. None of this touches your files.
Yes, after your first visit. Once the tool's WebAssembly module is cached, it works without internet.
Tools should be free, so they are. The site is supported by minimal display ads below tools and on articles. Tool UIs themselves stay clean — no ads in the conversion flow, ever. We may also add a paid API tier in the future for developers.
No. There's no signup, no email wall, no login. Open a tool, use it, leave.
Never. Your output files are identical to what you'd get from desktop software.
