Squishly

Your files are nobody's business.

Squishly is a small set of free image and PDF tools with one firm rule: your files never leave your browser. No uploads, no accounts, no catch.

The promise
Everything runs on your device. We never see your photos or documents, because they never reach us.

Why build it in the browser?

Modern browsers are powerful enough to do real image and PDF work locally. So we let them.

It's genuinely private
No upload means there's no copy of your photo or document on someone else's server to leak, sell or keep.
It's faster
No round-trip to a server and back. Your files are processed right where they already are.
It works on any device
Phones, tablets and computers all work. If the browser is up to date, the tools run right there, with no app to install.

Who makes Squishly

Dennis
Web developer, Bulgaria

Squishly is built and run by me, Dennis. I am a web developer from Bulgaria and I make websites for small businesses. The tools started as things I needed in that work: shrink a client's photos, turn a scan into a PDF, convert an iPhone photo so it opens on Windows, without uploading anyone's files to a server I do not control.

I write the guides on this site myself and check them against what the tools actually do. If a page promises something a tool does not deliver, or a result looks wrong, tell me and I will fix it.

How we keep the lights on

Squishly is free, so it's supported by a few unobtrusive ads on the page, never anything attached to your files, and by lovely people who buy us a coffee. That's the whole business model. No selling data, because we don't have your data to sell.
