Privacy by Default
BrowserZip runs entirely in your browser's background using Web Workers. This means your files are processed locally on your hardware. Even if we wanted to see your data, we couldn't — it never reaches our server.
Try it nowUnmatched Speed
While other tools make you sit through an "uploading" bar, BrowserZip starts unzipping as soon as you drop the file. We use the fflate library, which is significantly faster than standard JavaScript compression tools.
