Editorial Policy

Utills is an independent publication. This policy explains how our guides and tools are made and the standards we hold ourselves to. You can learn more about who we are on the about page.

Original, tested content

We write practical guides for the tasks our tools address. Guides may describe other software when a task is not yet supported by Utills. We aim to keep instructions clear, distinguish limitations from supported features, and correct errors when we find them.

How we build and test the tools

Utills combines our own interface and processing code with open-source libraries. Our checks include reference conversion values, image output dimensions, format round trips, malformed inputs, and browser workflows. Test coverage and browser support vary by feature; automated checks are not a guarantee that every file or device will behave identically. We re-test affected workflows when we change their implementation.

Authorship

Guides are published under the Utills name. Please contact us with corrections or questions about our content.

Accuracy and sources

Where a guide states a fact that isn't obvious from testing, we link to a reputable primary source. Tools and operating systems change, so we revisit popular guides and update the "last updated" date when steps change.

Advertising independence

The site is supported by advertising, but ads and sponsorships never determine what we recommend. We point readers to the genuinely best option for a task — including free and offline tools — even when that option earns us nothing. See our privacy policy for how advertising data is handled.

Use of AI

We may use software, including AI assistants, to help with research, drafting, or code. Every published guide is reviewed and verified by a human, and the final responsibility for accuracy is ours.

Corrections

If you spot an error, email hello@utills.in with a link to the page. We correct confirmed mistakes promptly and, for significant changes, note them on the page.
