Image and PDF tools that never upload your files
FileForge is a free, open-source set of more than 50 file tools for images, PDFs and developer formats. Every tool runs on your device, in a Chrome or Firefox extension or in a web app that works offline, so the file never leaves your computer.
Online converters want your files
Converting a HEIC photo or merging three PDFs should not mean handing a passport scan or a contract to a website you do not know. FileForge does the same jobs inside the page, with no server involved.
