About LivreImage

LivreImage is a set of free tools for working with images — compress, convert and resize — that run entirely inside your browser. No file is sent to a server: the processing happens on your own device, which makes everything instant and private.

We built LivreImage to solve a real, everyday problem: most online converters make you upload your photos to an unknown server, create an account, wait in a queue, or put up with limits and watermarks. Here it is different by principle — your images never leave your device.

What we believe in

• Real privacy: local processing, no upload, and automatic removal of EXIF metadata (GPS location, date, camera model).
• Free and unlimited: no sign-up, no watermark, no daily cap.
• Speed: conversion starts the moment you drop the file.
• Accessible: works on phones, tablets and computers, and can be installed as an app.

How this is possible

There is no magic and no hidden server: a modern browser already knows how to decode, redraw and re-encode images on its own. The tools use the canvas element to redraw your image and ask the browser itself to save it in another format or at another quality. Background removal uses a computer-vision model (U²-Netp) executed locally via WebAssembly.

This has a practical consequence that tends to surprise people: the better your device, the faster the result — because your device is doing the work, not a queue on a shared server.

And there is an honest limit: very large files depend on the memory available to the browser. On an older phone, a 50-megapixel photo may not fit. That is not a quota we impose; it is the ceiling of the device.

Don't take our word for it

The claim that nothing is uploaded can be verified in thirty seconds, with no technical knowledge: press F12, open the Network tab and use any tool. You will see the site load code and fonts — and no request carrying your image. It is the kind of promise we would rather you check than accept.

The service is supported by discreet ads, so it can stay free for everyone.
