FAQ.

Is fwip really free?

Yes. The browser tools are free. No trial, no account, no card. The offline desktop app costs money because it took time to build and we like eating.

Do you upload my files?

No. Your files never leave your device. Not to our servers, not to anyone's servers, not to the cloud, not to a "secure processing environment." They stay on your machine. That's the whole point.

How does it work without uploading?

WebAssembly. The same tools that used to run on servers now run in your browser. Your CPU does the work. We just wrote the interface.

What's the offline bundle?

A desktop app that works without a browser or internet. Same tools, runs natively on your machine. One-time payment, no subscription.

What file types do you support?

PDFs mostly. DOCX to PDF conversion too. More formats coming.

Is there a file size limit?

Browser tools handle up to 200MB. The offline app handles whatever your machine can handle.

Do you store any data?

The browser tools don't touch your files — they never leave your device. We use cookies for ads that help keep the free tools free, and basic analytics to understand which tools people use. If you buy the offline bundle, your payment is handled by Lemon Squeezy — we get confirmation of purchase but not your payment details. If you subscribe to the newsletter, we store your email. That's it.

Why ads?

The tools are free. Servers aren't. Ads keep the lights on without charging you a subscription. Your files still never leave your device — ads don't change that.

Can I use this for work or sensitive documents?

That's exactly what it's for. Contracts, legal docs, financials — the stuff you shouldn't be uploading to random websites. The browser tools never touch your files. And for total peace of mind, the offline bundle runs without a browser or internet connection at all. Just you and your files.

What browsers work?

Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge. Anything modern with WebAssembly support.

Who made this?

A small team that got tired of the subscription-for-everything model. More on the about page →
