What This Is
FreeToolsHub is just me building useful web tools and sharing them for free. I got tired of paying for simple tools or dealing with sketchy websites covered in ads, so I decided to make my own.
Why It Exists
- Most “free” tools are actually freemium with artificial limits
- Many sites are covered in invasive ads and trackers
- Simple tasks shouldn't require downloading software
- I wanted to learn how to build these tools anyway
- The internet needs more genuinely free stuff
How It Works
I build the tools with help from AI (mainly for the boring parts). The business model is simple:
- Tools are completely free to use
- Tasteful, non-intrusive ads help cover hosting costs
- No tracking, data mining, or selling your info
- No premium tiers or artificial limitations
What's Coming
I'm working on these tools (in no particular order):
- 📄 PDF Converter - Convert files to/from PDF
- 🖼️ Image Optimizer - Compress images without quality loss
- 🎵 Audio Trimmer - Cut and edit audio files
- 📊 JSON Formatter - Format and validate JSON
- 📋 Resume Enhancer - Build professional resumes
- 🎨 Color Picker - Pick colors and generate palettes
Technical Stuff
- Built with Next.js and TypeScript
- Most processing happens in your browser (privacy + speed)
- Hosted on Vercel for reliability
- Open to suggestions and feedback
Contact
Got questions, suggestions, or just want to say hi? I'm always interested in hearing what tools people actually need. Since it's just me, I might take a while to respond, but I'll do my best.
The Philosophy
Good tools should be free and accessible. The web is better when useful things don't cost money. Sometimes the best projects come from someone just scratching their own itch.
