ToolHop

I built ToolHop because I was sick of the usual “free tool” bait-and-switch. Every time I needed to convert an image, compress a file, check some text, or run a quick calculation, I’d end up hitting some arbitrary limit like “10 uses per week” or a forced signup wall. It’s ridiculous how something as basic as converting a JPG to a PNG can turn into a subscription pitch. So ToolHop started as a personal frustration project: I wanted a single place with a ton of genuinely useful tools that didn’t nag, lock you out, or throttle you. Over time that grew into 200+ handcrafted tools, all fast, simple, and actually free. No trickery, no timers, no limits. As I built it, the process became about consistency and quality. I wanted the tools to feel seamless, not slapped together. That meant focusing on speed, clean UI, accurate results, and making sure each tool works instantly without friction. The goal was always the same: a site that respects people’s time. Something you can rely on whenever you just need a tool to work. If ToolHop saves someone even a few minutes of hassle, then the project did its job.
