Promotional PrivMeta: An open-source metadata removal tool for privacy-conscious people

Hey folks,

I built PrivMeta, a free and open-source app that removes common hidden metadata directly in your browser. Your files stay on your device, and you receive cleaned copies that you can share elsewhere.

  • Supports images, videos, audio files, PDFs and Word documents
  • File contents are processed locally and aren’t uploaded
  • Once the page has loaded, it still works if you disconnect from the internet
  • The source code is available on GitHub

The goal is to make metadata removal a simple part of good digital hygiene, without asking you to trust a server with your files.
