# ChargeBite Tools

> Privacy-first online file utilities at https://chargebite.net — compress PDFs, merge PDFs, split PDFs, compress images, and zip files with zero long-term retention. Free, no account required.

ChargeBite Tools is a modern suite of everyday file utilities. Server-side PDF jobs are processed ephemerally (upload → process → return → delete). Image compression and ZIP creation run entirely in the browser — files never leave the user's device.
