The Kimosabe Philosophy
Kimosabe Tools was born out of a simple observation: most online file tools are slow, cluttered with ads, and—most importantly—require you to upload your personal documents to their servers.
How it works
Unlike traditional converters, Kimosabe Tools uses modern web technologies (like Canvas API and PDF-Lib) to process your files locally on your device. When you "upload" a file here, it stays in your computer's memory and never touches the internet.
Our Technology Stack
We leverage cutting-edge browser technologies to ensure your files never leave your device. Our tools use:
- HTML5 File API: For secure file handling directly in the browser
- Canvas API: For image manipulation and conversion
- PDF-Lib: For PDF editing, merging, and compression
- Web Workers: For background processing without freezing your browser
Support the Project
This project is maintained by a solo developer dedicated to keeping the web helpful and ad-free. If these tools have saved you time or money, please consider supporting the development to keep Kimosabe Tools running for everyone.
