Sorawi Tools vs ConversionTools: Which File Converter Should You Use?
Sorawi Tools is a free browser-based converter that never uploads your files. ConversionTools offers an API and server-side processing with daily limits. See how they compare on privacy, pricing, and file size. Sorawi Tools is our own product — this comparison is transparent about that. Pricing figures for ConversionTools are as of August 2026.
| Feature | Sorawi Tools | ConversionTools (free) | ConversionTools (paid) |
|---|---|---|---|

| API access | No (browser-first) | No on free | Yes (REST + SDKs) |
| Ads | None | No | No |
Privacy
Sorawi Tools processes every file in your browser — nothing is uploaded, so files never touch a server and no retention policy applies. ConversionTools uploads files to its servers and keeps them for 24 hours (paid plans can auto-delete after 15 minutes).
Pricing
Sorawi Tools is free with unlimited conversions, no account, and no ads. ConversionTools' free tier allows 5-10 conversions per day (50-100 per month) with 10-20 MB files; paid plans start at $7/month for 200 conversions.
File Size Limits
Sorawi Tools is limited only by your device memory — there is no upload cap. ConversionTools free tier allows 10-20 MB; paid plans scale to 100 MB-2 GB, with custom plans up to 100 GB.
API & Automation
ConversionTools offers a REST API with Node.js, PHP, and Python libraries for programmatic and server-side conversion. Sorawi Tools is browser-first by design — there is no API, so server automation is not possible.
Batch Processing
Both support batch conversions. ConversionTools processes batches server-side; Sorawi Tools processes them on your device and returns a ZIP download.
Tool Coverage
Sorawi Tools ships 150 free tools across 7 categories. ConversionTools covers document, image, audio, video, and eBook conversions plus an AI Converter Studio for custom converters.
