Why use Grayscale in your browser?
Photos and screenshots can contain faces, documents, or EXIF location data. Grayscale: Convert any image to black-and-white. Uses ITU-R luminance weighting (0.299/0.587/0.114). Server-side tools upload or log inputs. Just Tool It does not: it uses the HTML5 Canvas API and browser image codecs — pixels never leave this tab. Close the tab and the working data is gone. That is zero-server processing and on-device security.

Frequently asked questions
Is my data uploaded when I use Grayscale?
No. Just Tool It is a static web app. Your input is processed with the HTML5 Canvas API and browser image
codecs — pixels never leave this tab. You can verify in the browser Network panel: no file payloads are
sent to our origin for processing.
Is this tool free? Do I need an account?
Yes, it is free. There is no sign-up, paywall, or trial. We do not create user accounts because we never
receive your files.
Does it work offline?
After the page and any required libraries are cached (including via the service worker / PWA), many tools
keep working without a network. Large optional engines such as FFmpeg.wasm or OCR models still need a
one-time download.
How is this different from other free online tools?
Most free tools upload files to a cloud worker. Just Tool It emphasizes zero-server processing and
on-device security: files stay in browser memory until you download the output and close the tab.
