All In-Browser Metadata & Privacy Tools
Explore our complete directory of specialized in-browser metadata sanitizers. Every tool executes directly inside your browser memory with zero server uploads and zero data retention.
Specialized In-Browser Sanitization Tools
Select a tool tailored to your exact file format, privacy requirements, or creator workflow.
Universal Metadata Remover
Our flagship multi-format cleaner. Automatically detects file format, parses all embedded metadata categories, and provides dual-mode sanitization.
AI Metadata Remover
Engineered for digital artists. Strips Stable Diffusion parameters, seeds, ComfyUI workflow JSON, and C2PA Content Credentials from generated art.
Image Metadata Remover
Comprehensive photo privacy tool for general image files. Strips camera hardware profiles, creation timestamps, and device fingerprints across formats.
EXIF Data Remover
Photographer-focused utility. Cleans camera body serials, lens metadata, exposure settings, ISO ratings, and embedded IFD1 thumbnail leaks.
Remove Location from Photo
Mobile safety utility. Eliminates exact GPS latitude, longitude, altitude, and timestamps recorded by modern smartphones before online sharing.
JPG Metadata Remover
Lossless JPEG header surgery. Excises APP1 (EXIF/XMP) and APP13 (IPTC) markers while preserving raw DCT scan streams and ICC color profiles bit-for-bit.
PNG Prompt Stripper
PNG text chunk surgery. Excises tEXt, zTXt, and iTXt metadata chunks containing prompts and generation workflows while safeguarding color fidelity.
WebP Metadata Remover
Modern RIFF header cleaner. Clears bitwise EXIF/XMP flags in VP8X headers, strips metadata sub-chunks, and recalculates RIFF lengths client-side.
Which Metadata Sanitization Tool Should You Use?
Follow this decision guide to select the right in-browser sanitization pipeline for your privacy workflow.
Prompts & Workflows
Use AI Metadata Remover or PNG Prompt Stripper if you generate images with Stable Diffusion, Midjourney, or ComfyUI and want to strip text prompts and C2PA Content Credentials.
GPS & Geotag Privacy
Use Remove Location from Photo to strip decimal GPS coordinates and timestamps before sharing photos on classifieds, social media, or public forums.
Lossless Format Surgery
Use JPG Metadata Remover or EXIF Data Remover for Mode A binary excision that strips camera serials and exposure tags while leaving compressed pixels untouched.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Tools
Do any tools in this directory require uploading files to a cloud server?
No. Every utility in this directory runs 100% client-side inside your browser memory via Web Workers. Files never touch an external server.
Which file formats are currently supported for metadata cleaning?
JPEG (.jpg, .jpeg), PNG (.png), and WebP (.webp) are fully supported. Extended formats such as HEIC, PDF, and Video are scheduled on our technical roadmap pending WebAssembly module integration.
What is the difference between Mode A and Mode B cleaning?
Mode A performs byte-level binary chunk excision without decoding pixels, guaranteeing 100% lossless output. Mode B decodes the image to a canvas, strips all headers, and applies sub-perceptual noise to alter perceptual duplicate fingerprints.
Are there any usage limits or paywalls on these tools?
No. All tools are free, unlimited, and require no account registration, subscriptions, or credit cards.
