Images & media
Convert between formats, compress without losing quality, pull text out with OCR, strip hidden EXIF data, make a background transparent, cut a photo into a shape, or build a layered montage — plus the full CBCOM Photo Studio for everything at once.
Free online image tools
Because these image tools run entirely in your browser, your photos never leave your device — handy for anything personal or client work. They are free, need no sign-up, and add no watermark to the basics, with the CBCOM Photo Studio when you want everything in one canvas.
Which one do you need?
If you only need a different file type or a smaller file, Photo converter and Image compressor cover it. Image transparency and Color Replacer both work by clicking a colour: one makes it see-through, the other swaps it for a different colour, which is how you knock the background out of a logo. Cut out shapes crops a photo to a heart, a star or an outline you draw yourself. Photo montage stacks several images as layers. Image to text pulls readable text out of a screenshot or a scan. EXIF viewer & remover strips the GPS location and camera serial number that phones quietly write into every photo — worth doing before anything goes online. GIF maker turns stills into an animation, and the CBCOM Photo Studio holds the drawing tools, layers and shapes together on one canvas.
Common questions
Do you keep my photos?
We never receive them. Everything on this page happens inside your browser tab, so a family photo, a passport scan or a client’s artwork is processed on your own device and nowhere else. Close the tab and it is gone. There is nothing on our side to delete, because there was never anything to store.
Will there be a watermark on my image?
Not on the basics. Converting, compressing, removing EXIF data and reading text add nothing to your file. A few creative tools mark the free version, and the studios ask for credits when you export — that is what pays for the site. Nothing is ever added silently: if a tool marks its output, it says so before you press the button.
Why won’t my iPhone HEIC photos open in Chrome?
Because HEIC uses the HEVC codec, and the licence for that is paid by the device maker. Apple holds one, so Safari on an iPhone, iPad or Mac opens HEIC without any help from us. Chrome, Edge and Firefox on Windows do not. We deliberately do not ship a decoder of our own, so on Windows the honest answer is to convert the photo on the phone first.
