Show HN: I built 184 free browser tools – PDF, image, dev, AI tasks, no upload (brevio.pro)

Is there an way for me as user to be sure that the no upload promise holds? I mean yeah I could use the dev tools, but it would be cooler to have the browser eg prohibiting visually any upload of data beyond the pure url request

Of course not.
You can download the source and so you only need to vet it once.

Please remove the scroll jacking, there is just no need.

Allow me to suggest a form where people can leave their email to get updates or a newsletter from you! Brevio is the kind of thing that a lot of people look for, and value. The fact you're not charging and it all runs locally earns you a lot of trust and goodwill.
I'm not suggesting monetising your audience or starting a substack, but you never know when having a list of people who are interested in the things you build could come in handy.
I wouldn't even think you'd need to send a confirmation email: just leave it there and see who fills it in.

Why mess with scrolling?

Whenever I see "pro" in a domain name, there's usually a subscription or upgrade waiting for me at the other end, or something I have to sign up for. Nice to see that your site isn't one of those. Thanks for the free tools, man.
Your Privacy-Proof page is also reassuring. I would make it more prominent, but that's just me. It is great that it is there in the first place. Honesty always.
Two questions: - Do you have a GitHub repo for this? - Also: What made you decide on that `.pro` domain? Just curious.

+1 to everything @retmarut said! A GitHub repo for this would be great.
Also, the website's light mode is just glaring! :D

Neat. Where can I submit feedback? Cargo.lock shouldn’t be in gitignore :)

Could you share GitHub? Also image background remover doesn't seem to work on my PC (macOS 26.5.1, chrome 149.0.7827.103)

Same. Having a form/link to report bugs would be nice.

Actually, I use Raycast on macOS for easier use; it would be great if you could add this as a plugin there.

I am amazed and impressed, but someone should point out here some of the gaps in vision and effort or craft that lead to manual spam like “How to Compress Images Without Uploading Them (2026)”

Normalize not writing "I built" for vibecoded sites with generic Claude UI.

Yeah, look at the guides too. They're all ctrl+c ctrl+v straight from an LLM with no proper formatting, lol. https://brevio.pro/guides

Probably. But at least it's useful and runs locally. Better than all the predatory apps that you have to download 100mbs to do something this website can do instantly without downloading anything or sending anything to a server.

Built this because I kept finding tools that upload your files to a server. Every tool here runs entirely in your browser — PDF merge, JWT decode, image crop, LLM token counter, etc. Client-side by architecture, not by promise. Happy to answer questions about how any of the tools work
