Convert Any File To Any Format: Vert
100% free, open-source web app makes it easy, fast and secure to convert any image, audio, video or document files to your favorite file format.
What I do here: I find little-known, hard-to-find, zero-cost tools that are useful to creators, journalists, indie entrepreneurs, online consultants and trainers/coaches.
Sooner or later you will need to convert a file to a different file format than the original one. And while most applications do provide export features that allow you to save your file in a few different formats, these formats are usually few and limited to the most popular ones.
Vert is a web-based, open-source set of conversion utilities that makes it super-easy to convert any text/document, image, video or audio file to your desired file format in the fastest and most secure way possible, at zero-cost.

What I think of Vert:
Vert is a very useful, discreet and reliable tool. Those who have worked to put it together, for nothing in return, are true models to follow.
The tool is 100% free and open-source, it works across any device which has a web browser, and it does its job without having you share or risk compromising your name, email, or other private info. For all conversions but the video ones, everything happens on your device. Nothing is sent on the cloud. For video, since it needs lots of processing power, your file is uploaded, processed and after one hour it is deleted.
Try it, use it, share it while supporting those who are behind it, both economically and by crediting them.

CCPD Video Finder
For all of my supporters and paid subscribers on Substack, I have just released the second mini-app - built entirely by me with AI (and my nephew) assistance.
It is called Video Finder and it is a super-simple search engine that allows you to instantly find Creative-Commons licensed and Public Domain videos on Youtube and Vimeo.
It is great for those who use or would like to use more video content inside their social media posts, articles, guides or newsletters as it instantly surfaces video content that could be downloaded, edited, remixed and re-uploaded (rather than being just embedded).
