About Media Tools

Media Tools is a free collection of 47 tools for working with GIFs, video and audio. You can convert a video to a GIF, compress a video, trim an audio clip and much more — all without installing software or creating an account.

Most online converters upload your files to a server to process them. We don't. Every tool on Media Tools runs directly in your browser using WebAssembly (a compiled build of the open-source FFmpeg engine). Your files are read, processed and saved on your own device — they are never uploaded, never stored on a server, and never seen by anyone but you.

A practical bonus: because the processing happens locally, the tools keep working offline after the first load, and there are no file-size caps imposed by an upload limit.

• No uploads. Files never leave your device.
• Free, with no sign-up. Every tool is free and needs no account.
• No watermarks or file-size caps. Your output is yours, unmarked.
• Works offline. After the first visit the tools run without a connection.
• Open technology. Powered by FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly, running in a standards-based browser sandbox.
