How ToolGalli works
π Don't take our word for it β verify it below
Most "online tools" work like this: you upload your file to their server, their server processes it, and you download the result. Your document β your Aadhaar, your bank statement β travels to a computer you don't control, and you have to trust what happens to it there.
ToolGalli works the other way around. When a tool page loads, the tool itself (a small piece of JavaScript) comes to your browser β like any website's code does. From then on, everything happens on your device: your file is opened locally, processed locally, and saved locally. There is no upload step. We never see your file, so there is nothing for us to store, leak or sell.
The airplane-mode test
Here's the honest proof β no technical knowledge needed:
- Wait for this page to finish loading (it already has).
- Turn on airplane mode (or switch off Wi-Fi and mobile data).
- Try the demo below. It still works. A tool that uploaded your files could not work with the internet off.
For the technically curious: open your browser's DevTools β Network tab while using any tool. You'll see the page and its code load β and then no request carrying your file, ever.
One honest caveat
The tool's code does come from the internet β that's how every website works β and a few heavy features (like on-device OCR or HEIC conversion) fetch their library the first time you use them. But that traffic is only ever code coming down to you. Your files never travel up. Once a tool page is loaded, the processing itself needs no connection at all β that's what the test above proves.
What we do count
We keep anonymous tallies β "this tool was used", "a visitor returned" β so we know what's useful. No files, no names, no identifiers, and every number we hold is public at /api/counts. The full details are on the privacy page.
Why we built it this way
Documents like Aadhaar, PAN and bank statements are exactly the files that should never sit on some tool website's server. Processing them in your browser isn't a premium feature for us β it's the whole point. It also means our costs stay tiny, which is how the tools stay free.
