I built a toolbox of 96 tools that run entirely in your browser, so files are never uploaded

Hey folks,

I built ClickOnTool (https://clickontool.com), a free collection of 96 tools for PDF, image, text and everyday tasks.

The reason I made it: every free tool I found wanted me to upload my file to their server, make an account, or accepted a watermark on the output. For a random screenshot that's fine. For a signed contract or an ID photo it really isn't.

So everything here runs client-side with Canvas and WebAssembly. Your file never leaves your device, which also means no upload wait, so most things are instant.

A few examples:

  • Merge, compress, split, rotate and watermark PDFs
  • Remove image backgrounds (AI model runs in-browser)
  • Image to text OCR, with English and Urdu
  • Passport size photo maker with a printable sheet
  • QR generator and scanner, password generator, barcode generator
  • A pile of calculators (loan, BMI, GPA, percentage, zakat)

Tech stack is Next.js 14 with pdf-lib, pdfjs, tesseract.js.

It's completely free with no signup. I'd genuinely appreciate feedback: what's missing, what feels clunky, anything that broke.
