Everything on this site already runs in your browser and works offline once visited. A desktop app adds the conveniences a browser tab can't: an icon in your dock, file-type associations ("Open with Tooly"), no address bar between you and the tool, and a guarantee that works on a plane with zero setup.


What it would be

  • All 60 tools, the same ones on this site — JSON, JWT, HEIC, PDF, regex, hashes, and the rest.
  • One-time purchase, around $9. No subscription. No license server phoning home — we don't build those.
  • No account, no telemetry. The web version's single Plausible call doesn't even come along; the desktop app would make zero network requests.
  • Windows, macOS, Linux — a lightweight native shell (Tauri, not Electron), so it stays small.

What it would never be

  • A gate on anything. Every tool stays free at toolymctoolface.com, forever — the app is a paid convenience, not a paywall.
  • A subscription, an account system, or a tracking surface.

Want it? Say so.

The build only happens if enough people actually want it — that's the honest version of a product roadmap. One email is the whole vote:

Email "Desktop app: I want it" — mention your OS if you like. When there are enough votes to justify the build, everyone who emailed hears first, with early-bird pricing. If there never are, your inbox stays quiet; the address book is a waitlist, not a marketing list.

Companies that need the tools behind a firewall today don't have to wait — Tooly for Teams is the self-hosted bundle, available now. Individuals who just want to support the site can tip the toolmaker.
