Our story

About LinksConverter

No sketchiness. No hidden tracking. Just a fast, clean tool built by a developer who needed it themselves.

I built LinksConverter because I got tired of sketchy converter websites — the ones that force you to sign up, bombard you with fifteen ads before anything happens, or, worst of all, keep your files forever on a server you've never heard of.

My name is Maya Brooks, I'm an independent developer, and this started as a side project. I kept tweaking it on weekends until it became something I actually wanted to use myself every single day.

The tech behind the tool

I didn't reinvent the wheel — I just put together the best open-source wheels available.

  • Downloads

    Powered by yt-dlp — honestly one of the best open-source projects out there right now.

  • Conversions

    Handled by ffmpeg — rock-solid and battle-tested for audio, video, and format changes.

  • Security

    Every uploaded file goes through a ClamAV antivirus scan before anything else happens.

A strict 2-hour privacy promise

No archives. No databases. No tracking.

Every file you upload or convert is automatically and permanently deleted within 2 hours. Too many "free" tools are free because your data is the product — that is exactly what I don't want LinksConverter to be. You come, you convert, you leave — and the server forgets you were ever here.

Built for regular people

LinksConverter is completely free. No account, no watermarks, no nonsense. It's for students, professionals, and anyone who just needs to download a video for offline viewing or swap a file format quickly — without making a whole project out of it.

This is a one-person operation. If something breaks or doesn't work the way you expect, use the feedback option in the app — I read every message, and your input shapes what I fix or add next.

Thanks for using it — it really does mean a lot.
