A clear promise
Your work stays yours.
A document tool should help you get things done and be clear about what happens to your files. Here’s how this one works.
Where do my files go?
On the hosted site, your PDFs and images are processed inside your browser. When you start the toolbox with the local launcher, PDF compression uses a service on your own computer and removes temporary files after each request. Your files are never sent to an Akeluwa cloud server.
What needs an internet connection?
The hosted website needs an internet connection to load. PDF tools load their libraries from this website. Background removal also downloads its library and AI model from external providers, which can take longer on the first run. Processing happens on your device.
What happens when I finish?
Closing or refreshing the tab clears the active editing workspace. Files you download remain on your device. Your browser may keep the tool libraries and AI model in its cache.
Can I edit any PDF?
The editor adds text and images over your document and can cover and replace selectable text. Scanned documents need OCR, which isn’t included. Covering text is a visual edit and does not securely remove the original content.

Common questions
What is Akeluwa ToolBox?
Akeluwa ToolBox, also written AkeluwaToolBox, is this collection of free browser-based PDF and photo tools. You can edit and compress PDFs, resize photos, convert files, organize PDF pages, and remove image backgrounds without an account.
Which tool should I choose?
Use the PDF reducer for document size, the photo reducer for a target size in KB, and the converters to change file formats. Keep your originals so you can compare the downloaded result.
Do I need an account or subscription?
The current AkeluwaToolBox tools are free to use without registration or a subscription.
Where are my files processed?
On this hosted website, the tools process PDFs and photos in your browser. If you run the optional local PDF service, it processes PDFs on your own computer and deletes temporary files after each request.
