Why this collection exists

Useful output without mystery around the process.

Small web tools often hide important assumptions: whether input is uploaded, how repeated values are handled, what happens to transparency, or which edge cases are unsupported.

Here, those choices are part of the product. Each tool states what it accepts, what it returns, where processing happens, and when another approach would be safer or more accurate.
