Privacy-first web apps and everyday utilities
Encrypted file sharing, RSS discovery, news aggregation, IP tools, and time utilities - all built without tracking. Many are free and some need an account.
Canvas Code Generator
A free, browser-based generator for 12 professional animated HTML5 canvas effects - fireworks, particle networks, matrix rain, animated gradients, snow, neon trails, and more. Tweak every parameter in real time, then export production-ready code in five formats: standalone HTML, plain JS, React component, embed snippet, or PNG snapshot.
No signup. No watermark. No tracking. Use the exported code anywhere - personal projects, agency sites, paid client work - under MIT licence. Built to fix what was broken about Vanta.js and Particles.js: actually-working controls, framework-free output, responsive by default.
- 12 effects, 10-24 working controls each
- Real-time tweaking - no reload, no compile
- 5 export formats for any stack
- Aspect-ratio preview before exporting
- Light + dark editor themes
- ~200 KB total weight, no framework
Privacy-first web apps, built in the open
Our web apps solve common problems - sharing sensitive files, keeping up with the news, discovering RSS feeds, or checking your IP details - without asking for an email address, loading a single tracking pixel, or writing a row to an analytics database. Every tool on this page is built and maintained from our studio in Poole, Dorset; we write the code, we pay for the hosting, and we take the support tickets ourselves, with no venture-capital targets pushing us toward dark patterns and no "growth team" trying to squeeze more data out of the people using the tools. That independence is the whole reason these apps can stay small, fast, and genuinely private - pick any tool below and none of them will ask for your name, your email, or a login.

Every tool is engineered around the same three rules: no accounts, no third-party analytics, and client-side processing wherever possible. None of our web apps need you to register, hand over an email address, or verify a phone number - which cuts off the most common source of leaked personal data before it exists. We don't load Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Hotjar, or any of the other visitor-tracking services that silently sit on most websites; the only logs we keep are the plain server access logs needed to keep the sites online. InfoBin uses zero-knowledge encryption so your files are encrypted in your browser before they ever touch our server, and RSS Kit and RSS Ninja process feeds locally in the browser - meaning "trust us" isn't something we have to ask for, because we couldn't misuse the data if we wanted to.
Who uses these tools
Journalists and researchers use InfoBin to share source documents with colleagues without leaving a trail on a corporate file-sharing platform, while small-business owners and solicitors reach for it for one-off transfers of invoices, contracts, and sensitive scans. RSS Kit is used by anyone building a reading list - from bloggers tracking competitors, to indie news fans rebuilding a feed reader after Google Reader, to researchers pulling in academic journal updates - and RSS Ninja is the paired reader: a maintained Firefox and Chrome alternative to the abandoned RSS extensions most people were using until recently. NewsBin, What's My IP, and Time Tools round out the set as everyday utilities for a quick sanity-check on a network connection, a Pomodoro timer for focused work, or a clean read of the day's news without being tracked around the web afterwards.
