FAQ

What format is the compressed output?
gzip-compressed data encoded as Base64. The output is a safe text string you can copy and paste anywhere. If you have old compressed strings from before August 2026 (when the tool used LZ4), they will not decompress — the format was changed.
Why gzip?
gzip is widely supported, compresses well on text, and works natively in the browser with the CompressionStream API. Combined with Base64 encoding, you get a portable text string.
Is my data uploaded anywhere?
No. All compression and decompression happens locally in your browser.
