What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded

A self-hosted, browser-based web UI for converting files between many formats, running OCR on PDFs and images, transcribing audio with Whisper, and text-to-speech. It wraps CLI tools like FFmpeg, LibreOffice, Pandoc, ImageMagick, Tesseract, and faster-whisper behind a FastAPI backend with background job processing.

Use cases

  • convert video and audio files between formats in a browser
  • extract text from scanned pdfs with ocr
  • transcribe voice recordings to text locally
  • convert documents with libreoffice and pandoc without installing each tool
  • self-host a private file conversion service
  • run whisper transcription on a home server
  • batch convert images with imagemagick via web ui

When to choose

  • you want a local, private alternative to online file converters
  • you need one web UI covering conversion, OCR, and transcription
  • you run a home server or homelab with Docker
  • you want to keep sensitive documents off third-party converter sites

When to avoid

  • you need a hardened, publicly exposed service without an OAuth/OIDC proxy (risk of arbitrary code execution)
  • you only need a single conversion type and prefer a lightweight CLI tool
  • you cannot run Docker or install heavy dependencies like LibreOffice and TeX
