FAQ
Is PixelFlow free to use?
The tools are available without an account or credits. Browser, device, file-size, and format limits still apply. Ads are not guaranteed and require configuration and the applicable consent signal.
Are files uploaded when I use PixelFlow?
The implemented client flow processes selected files in your browser and does not send them to a Tolari processing endpoint. The page may still request scripts or other resources from configured third parties.
What limits apply?
Stated file-size limits (100MB and 50 megapixels per image) apply. Actual support and memory use vary by browser and device; try a smaller file if processing fails.
How should I compare alternatives?
Use the same sample and compare supported formats, output quality, file-size limits, browser compatibility, privacy terms, and current pricing. Provider features and policies can change.
