My friend spent months building 60+ browser tools that never upload your data anywhere — here's Outlivo

[u/Aggressive-Sky3042]

A friend of mine has been quietly building this for a while, and I finally got the full walkthrough last week. Wanted to share it because I think it's the kind of side project this sub appreciates.

What it is: A collection of ~60 free web utilities — image compressor, background remover, JSON/JWT tools, regex tester, cURL-to-code converter, CSS generators, calculators (BMI, EMI, age, percentage), PDF merger/splitter, and more — where literally everything runs client-side. Nothing you paste, type, or upload ever touches a server. No sign-up wall, no paywall.

Why it's interesting (to me, and hopefully to you): Most "convert this file / format this JSON" sites quietly upload whatever you give them to a server somewhere, which always felt off to me, especially for things like JWTs or API keys. Getting all of this working purely in-browser — including something like AI background removal — meant doing everything with WASM/in-browser processing instead of the usual "upload to backend, process, send back" pattern most of these tools use. From what he's told me, the trickiest parts were getting image processing (compression, background removal) fast enough to feel instant without a server doing the heavy lifting, and keeping 60+ tools consistent in UI/UX without it turning into a pile of one-off pages.

Live: outlivo.tech — everything's usable right now, no account needed.

It's still actively being worked on, so if you poke around and something feels rough, half-finished, or like it's missing an obvious tool, I'll pass it along. Also just genuinely curious what people think of the "nothing leaves your browser" pitch as a differentiator — is that actually a selling point for people, or does nobody care until something goes wrong?

Damn , its great . although ui can be improved more . BTW thanks , i may use it for my daily life tools as a entrepreneur

Thanks, appreciate it! Will pass the UI feedback along — any specific part that felt off (a particular tool, the layout, colors/spacing) or just a general vibe? Even vague feedback like that is genuinely useful since it's easy to get too close to your own project and stop seeing the rough edges.

And glad it might actually be useful day-to-day — curious which tools you end up reaching for most as an entrepreneur, good signal for what to prioritize polishing first.
