(The brief)
Online utility sites are slow, covered in ads, and often upload whatever you paste to a server. Many also pad themselves with near-duplicate pages that search engines treat as low quality.
(What we built)
VeraUtils is a static Astro site on Cloudflare where one data file per category drives every page, the sitemap, related links and the privacy policy. Each tool declares whether it runs locally or calls a third party, and the build fails if a network tool lacks a disclosure, so the site cannot claim privacy it does not deliver. A Playwright suite checks tool output, console errors, mobile overflow, accessibility and duplicate metadata on every build.
If a tool sends anything off your device, the build refuses to pass until the page says so.
What’s inside
44 tools, 6 categories
Developer tools, file & data converters, design & colour, text & writing, calculators, productivity & security.
Runs in your browser
42 tools process everything locally. Nothing you paste is sent to a server.
Privacy enforced by data
Every tool declares local or network processing, and pages and the privacy policy are generated from it.
SEO built in
Unique titles, how-tos, worked examples, FAQs and schema per tool, validated at build time.
Generated share images
Open Graph images are rendered at build time from tool data, so they never drift.
Automated QA
Playwright tests for correctness, console errors, 375px overflow, accessible names and heading order.
