We got tired of developer tools that wanted our email first.
SyncTonight started as a personal collection of bookmarked utilities scattered across a dozen tabs. Now it's one place - free, fast, and built on a rule we won't break: nothing you paste in ever leaves your browser.
{
"name": "SyncTonight",
"mission": "free tools, zero friction",
"signup_required": false,
"data_leaves_browser": "never",
"tools_shipped": "100+",
"status": "still building"
}
One too many "format this JSON" Google searches.
It wasn't a grand plan. It was the tenth time in a week opening a new tab to paste JSON into some site covered in ads, that also wanted an account before letting you copy the output.
So we built one. Then a Base64 tool. Then a JWT decoder. Before long it stopped being a personal utility belt and started being something worth sharing with everyone else stuck in the same dozen tabs.
$ git log --oneline --reverse
a1b2c3d init: json formatter, because tabs are chaos
e4f5g6h add: base64 encoder (obviously necessary)
h7i8j9k feat: jwt decoder - no more random third-party sites
k1l2m3n feat: community can now suggest tools
n4o5p6q chore: hit 100 tools, still 0 signups required
$ echo "still building."
still building.
Where we're headed from here.
Faster, smarter search
Instant fuzzy search across every tool and guide - find what you need in one keystroke.
More converters & generators
The catalog keeps growing based on what the community actually asks for.
Public API access
Run select tools programmatically - for scripts, CI pipelines, and automations.
Browser extension
Right-click any selected text on the web and run it through a tool instantly.
A few rules we've never broken.
No dark patterns
No fake urgency, no forced accounts, no email walls hiding a free tool behind a signup form.
Ship in public
New tools go live the moment they work - not after a redesign, not after a launch email.
Community driven
Most of what we build comes from someone telling us what they were missing. Keep those coming.
Tools over content
We'd rather ship one more useful tool than one more banner asking you to subscribe.
Missing a tool you use every week?
Tell us what it is - most of what's live today started exactly that way.
