About UploadReady

UploadReady Tools is a free, browser-based file utility built for one specific problem: forms that reject your file because it is too large, the wrong format, or the wrong dimensions.

Every tool on UploadReady runs entirely in your browser. There is no upload queue, no server processing, and no account required. When you compress an image or change a background color, the work happens on your device — not ours.

What we built

• Compress image to exact KB
• Resize image to exact pixels
• Batch image compression
• Format converter (JPG / PNG / WebP)
• Signature resize
• Passport / ID photo background

Why browser-only

Most file tools send your images to a server, process them, and stream the result back. This works, but it means your files — passport photos, signature scans, ID documents — travel across a network you do not control.

We use the HTML5 Canvas API and standard JavaScript APIs to process files directly in your browser. The result is instant, private, and works offline once the page has loaded.

What is coming

The image tools are live and working. PDF tools — JPG to PDF, merge PDF, compress PDF — are next. We build new tools only after the existing ones prove useful in practice.

Limitations

Browser processing has real limits. PNG is a lossless format, so we reduce file size by scaling down dimensions rather than reducing quality — the target KB is approximate, not guaranteed. Very large files (over 20 MB) may slow down on low-memory devices. For those cases, process files in smaller batches.

The background replacement tool uses a color threshold — it works best on clean, plain white or light-colored backgrounds. It is not AI-powered and will not cleanly remove complex backgrounds or soft shadows.
