The AI tools (background removal, upscaling, object erase) run on a server and use credits; every install includes free credits to try them, and you only pay if you want more. Nothing else is gated. WHY SAVEAS 100% local conversion. Your images never leave your device when converting, resizing or editing — everything happens in your browser using the Canvas API, so it also works offline. (Only the optional AI tools send an image to a secure server, and only when you run them.) No host permissions. Unlike many similar extensions that request broad access to your browsing data, SaveAs deliberately avoids it. It cannot read the pages you visit. Lightweight & open source. No bloat, no tracking of your content, and the full source code is public so anyone can verify it does exactly what it says. Available in 50+ languages. PERMISSIONS, EXPLAINED SaveAs asks for the minimum set of permissions and nothing more: • contextMenus — adds the "Save image as" items to your right-click menu • downloads — saves the file to your Downloads folder • activeTab + scripting — reads the image you right-clicked, only on that tab, only when you click • storage — remembers your format and quality settings • offscreen — converts images in the background without opening windows Notably absent: host permissions. SaveAs never asks for access to "all your data on all websites". COMMON USES • Convert WebP to JPG or PNG for older software • AVIF to JPG when you need a universally supported format • Resize a photo to an exact size for email, the web or social media • Remove the background from a product photo or portrait → transparent PNG • Upscale a small or blurry image • Crop and annotate a screenshot, then blur out sensitive details • Save any web image as a PDF for archiving or printing • Download Twitter, Instagram or Pinterest images in full resolution WHO IT'S FOR Designers and creatives who need images in specific formats or with backgrounds removed. Developers who want consistent file types for assets and testing. Students and researchers organizing references. Content managers collecting visuals. And anyone tired of Chrome saving images as WebP when they need a JPG or PNG. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Q: Why are my images saving as WebP? A: Chrome often serves images in WebP for compression, but not all software supports it. Right-click and save as JPG or PNG instead — SaveAs converts it instantly, on your device. Q: How do I convert WebP to JPG or PNG? A: Right-click any image and pick JPG or PNG from the SaveAs menu. The conversion is instant and local. Transparency is preserved for PNG. Q: How do I resize an image? A: Right-click an image and choose Resize, or open the editor and click Resize. Set an exact width and height (or scale to 50% / 25%), then save. Q: How do I remove a background? A: Open the editor and choose Remove background. The AI returns a clean transparent PNG. Free credits are included to try it. Q: Is the background remover or upscaler free? A: Every install includes free AI credits to try them. Converting, resizing, cropping and annotating are always free; only the AI tools use credits. Q: How do I save an image as PDF? A: Right-click any image and choose PDF — it becomes a full-page PDF, ideal for printing or archiving. You can also export a cropped selection as PDF. Q: Does it work with AVIF images? A: Yes. If your browser can display it, SaveAs can convert and save it in any supported format. Q: How do I download images from Twitter/X or Instagram? A: Right-click the image and pick your format. SaveAs automatically requests the original-quality version instead of the compressed thumbnail. Q: Can I crop or annotate before saving? A: Yes. Open the editor to crop, add text, arrows, shapes or step numbers, blur sensitive info, add a watermark, then export. Q: Why doesn't SaveAs ask for access to all websites? A: Because it doesn't need it. It uses activeTab — access only to the tab where you right-clicked, only at that moment. It can't read everything you browse. Q: What happens if an image fails to save? A: You'll see a short message explaining why, right on the page. No silent failures.
