About Fix42
Building tools so your day's one hassle lighter.
I love turning "wouldn't it be nice if…" into real, useful stuff. Think of Fix42 as your friendly internet handyman with a keyboard.
What is Fix42?
Fix42 is a growing collection of free online tools for everyday digital tasks. From viewing CSV files and converting images to learning German and exploring bioinformatics data, we provide simple solutions without sign-ups or complicated processes.
The name "Fix42" reflects our mission to solve those countless small digital challenges you face daily - whether it's formatting JSON, generating QR codes, or turning photos into artistic doodles.
Our Philosophy
- Privacy First: All tools work directly in your browser. Your files never leave your device.
- Always Free: No subscriptions, no paywalls, no "premium" features. Just free tools that work.
- No Nonsense: Simple, fast tools that do exactly what they say on the tin.
- Built with Care: Every tool is crafted to solve real problems we've encountered ourselves.

Why We Built This
We've all been there - needing to quickly view a CSV without Excel, convert an image format, or validate some JSON. Instead of downloading software or trusting random websites with your files, Fix42 offers privacy-focused tools that work instantly in your browser.
Our tools process everything locally when possible, keeping your data secure. No accounts, no uploads to sketchy servers, no hidden fees. Just open, use, and get on with your day.
