Which files can I use?
FormatOwl supports video, audio, images, PDFs and selected office documents. Each tool lists its supported formats and size limits. The homepage uploader opens a suitable tool for your file type.
Do I need to pay first?
Viewing and downloading public samples is free and uses no credits. Processing your own file or reprocessing a sample follows the current credit rules, with a cost estimate before submission. See Credits & pricing for prices and availability.
How long are my files stored?
Uploaded originals and results are private to their account or browser session. By default they expire 24 hours after upload and are removed by the cleanup process. You can delete them sooner in your workspace. Public samples contain no user uploads.
Will every file get the same result?
Results depend on the content, original encoding and settings. Already compressed files may not become much smaller, and format conversion can increase size. Preview the result and download it to check the details.
