Who we are
Hypiic is an independently run website that builds free, browser-based photo editing tools. There is no company behind Hypiic, no investors, and no sign-up wall — just a set of tools built to solve specific, everyday photo problems.
Why we built Hypiic
Most online photo tools ask you to upload your picture to a server before doing anything with it. That means your photo, sometimes something as personal as a passport photo or an ID picture, leaves your device and sits on someone else’s storage. Hypiic was built to remove that step entirely. Every tool on this site runs in your browser using your device’s own processing power, so your photo never has to travel anywhere to be compressed, cropped, or converted.
How our tools work
Each tool on Hypiic uses standard browser technology (the HTML5 Canvas API) to read, edit, and export your image locally. Nothing is transmitted to a server during editing, and nothing is stored after you close the tab. You can read more about this on our safety page.
What’s next
We’re adding new tools and guides over time based on the photo problems people actually run into — compressing images to a specific file size, converting formats, cropping to exact dimensions, and cleaning up backgrounds. If there’s a tool you’d like to see, get in touch.
