How it works

1

Upload or paste

Drop an image, or type a URL for a QR code. No account.

2

Process on your device

Crop, enlarge, QR, and background removal run in the tab. PixTools does not receive your photos.

3

Download

Save a PNG or SVG. No watermark. QR files do not expire.

Fast, private, downloadable

Fast enough to skip a tutorial

CTA above the fold, then upload and download. The heavy background model loads only on that tool page.

Private by design

Image processing happens in-browser. We do not claim a cloud workspace we do not run.

Download a real PNG

Transparent backgrounds, crops, enlarges, and QR codes are files you keep — not a preview trap.

The upscaler is quality enlarge (Lanczos + sharpen), not generative AI. If you searched for a free AI image upscaler, read that label before you expect invented detail.

Guides

Short how-tos that match search intent, then send you into the tool.

Who runs PixTools

PixTools is an independent product, not a doorway of cloned widgets. We built four in-browser tools so you can cut a background, crop an avatar, enlarge a PNG without generative AI, and make a QR code that does not expire — without creating an account. Processing stays on your device. Policies, contact, and an honest upscaler comparison live on this site, not a third-party template.

FAQ

Straight answers for people comparing free image tools. See About and Contact if you need the humans behind the site.

Is PixTools free?

Yes. The background remover, image cropper, upscaler, and QR generator are free, with no account or watermark in this MVP.

Do I need to create an account?

No signup. Open a tool, upload a file or paste text, and download the result.

Are my images uploaded to a server?

No. Cropping, enlarging, QR generation, and background removal run in your browser. Files are not sent to PixTools servers. The background remover may download a public model into your cache; your photo still stays on the device.

Is the image upscaler generative AI?

No. Searches for a free AI image upscaler often mean generative models. PixTools enlarges with Lanczos resampling and sharpening. It produces a larger PNG but does not invent new pixels. The Image upscaler vs AI upscaler guide explains when each approach is the better fit.

Does a generated QR code expire?

No. You keep a PNG or SVG. We do not host the destination, so the code cannot expire.

How does this compare with Canva, Adobe Express, or Photopea?

Those are full editors with accounts and cloud features. PixTools is four focused browser tools: remove a background, crop (including circle), enlarge without a generative model, and make a QR code that does not expire. We are not a replacement for a complete design suite.

What file types are supported?

JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, and BMP in current browsers. HEIC depends on the browser. QR codes export as PNG or SVG.

Who runs PixTools, and how do I get in touch?

PixTools is an independent browser-tool project. Read About for the mission, Contact to email us, and Privacy for what we do and do not collect.
