Privacy Policy.

Last updated: May 2026

1. The short version

AI Input Lab is a collection of browser-based utilities for preparing files and text for AI systems. Every tool — PDF extraction, OCR, transcript cleaning, Markdown conversion, video-to-GIF, batch document extraction — runs locally in your browser. Your files are never uploaded to our servers, because we do not operate file servers.

2. Information we do not collect

  • The contents of your files (PDFs, images, videos, documents, text).
  • The names of your files.
  • Extracted text, OCR output, GIFs, or any tool result.
  • Account information — there are no accounts on this site.

3. Information we may collect

We may collect anonymous, aggregated usage analytics to understand which tools are useful and to improve the site. This may include page views, the tool selected, browser type, approximate region, and referring URL. We do not collect or store any personally identifiable information through these analytics.

4. Cookies and local storage

We use a minimal amount of browser storage for technical functionality (e.g. caching the WebAssembly modules that power OCR and video conversion so they load faster on repeat visits). We may also use first-party analytics cookies. You can clear cookies and site data at any time from your browser settings.

5. Third-party advertising

AI Input Lab may display advertisements served by Google AdSense and other third-party advertising partners. These partners may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits to our site and/or other sites on the internet.

You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, or you can opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalised advertising by visiting aboutads.info.

Visitors from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or other regions with similar regulations have additional rights regarding personal data. We honour applicable consent requirements and you may withdraw consent at any time through your browser or your ad-settings page above.

6. Children's privacy

AI Input Lab is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect any information from children under 13.

7. Data security

Because file processing happens locally in your browser, the most sensitive data — your files — never leaves your device. The site itself is served over HTTPS.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy occasionally. The "Last updated" date above will reflect the most recent revision. Material changes will be communicated on the homepage when relevant.
