When you need to merge two PDFs, compress a PNG, or convert an iPhone HEIC photo to JPG, most online tools force you through a slow server upload queue, stamp watermarks on your output, or ask for a signup.
While building BixTools, our goal was straightforward: run PDF, image, text, and calculator utilities directly inside the user's browser so files stay on the device.
Core Utilities Running in the Browser
- PDF Suite: Merge PDF, Split PDF, JPG to PDF, and a rich 25 font Text to PDF editor on BixTools.
- Image Suite: Client side Image Compressor, Image Resizer, HEIC to JPG, and WebP to PNG.
- Calculators & Generators: Multi currency Loan and EMI Calculator with CSV schedule export, WHO and Asian standard BMI Calculator, NIST Unit Converter, QR Code Generator, and Password Generator.
