How it works.

Every tool on ineedtools.net runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Nothing you paste or type is sent to any server. No accounts, no tracking, no logs.

State & localStorage

Some tools save your last input to localStorage so it's still there when you return. This is stored only on your device and can be cleared at any time from your browser settings.

Tools that save state:

• JSON Formatter — saves last input
• YAML Formatter — saves last input
• XML Formatter — saves last input
• Placeholder Strings — saves pinned card list
• JWT Decoder — saves last token
• Regex Tester — saves last pattern and input
• URL Encoder — saves last input

Tools that do not save state:

• UUID Generator
• Password Generator
• Hash Generator
• QR Code Generator
• Base64 Encoder & Decoder
• Unix Timestamp Converter
• Bytes Converter
• Color Converter
• Text Diff
• Cron Parser
• IP Address Lookup
