Most file converters upload your files to their servers and charge you monthly.
I built something different.
howtoconvert.co
A local app that converts 5,384 file types completely on your computer. No uploads. No subscriptions.
Documents, videos, images, audio, email, comic books. Started with 2,000 formats a year ago. Now it does way more.
Why I built it:
I was tired of looking up command-line tools every time I needed to convert something. Wanted a drag-and-drop app that anyone could use.
Also didn't love sending my files to random websites.
How it's different:
Apps like Permute only do multi-media. Command-line tools like ffmpeg are powerful but most people don't want to use the terminal.
This does everything in one place. Batch conversions, compression, cropping, trimming.
$29 one-time for lifetime updates. (Also, most multi-media conversions are free on the web demo)
