Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Orbit2x — privacy, browser support, and how we keep 50+ tools permanently free.
Privacy & Security
How we handle your data — no tracking, no third-party storage.
Yes. All processing tools run entirely in your browser. When you use the JSON Formatter, Base64 Converter, Hash Generator, or any client-side tool, data never leaves your device. Our Go backend only serves HTML, CSS, and JavaScript — it has no database and receives no tool inputs.
We use Google Analytics (anonymized, with IP masking) for aggregate traffic metrics, and Cloudflare for DDoS protection. We set no advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. We do not sell user data.
No. Tool inputs are processed in your browser's memory using client-side JavaScript and the Web Crypto API. Our servers only receive a standard HTTP page request — not the content you type into any tool.
No. The File Encryption and hash tools use the browser's native Web Crypto API, which operates entirely client-side. Your keys and files never touch our servers.
Technical
Browser compatibility, offline support, and file handling.
All modern browsers released after 2020 — Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. We use ES2020+ JavaScript and HTML5 APIs with no plugins required. Internet Explorer is not supported.
Most text-processing tools (JSON Formatter, Base64, Regex Tester, Hash Generator, etc.) work offline once the page has loaded. Network tools like DNS Lookup and SSL Checker require internet access to query external servers in real time.
No server-side limits. Since processing is entirely client-side, limits depend on your device's available RAM. Modern devices handle files up to 100 MB without issue. For very large files, split them into smaller chunks first.
Network diagnostic tools like DNS Lookup and SSL Checker must query external servers to retrieve real-time data. Our backend acts as a CORS proxy for these requests — it does not log the domain names or data being fetched.
Usage & Features
Commercial use, rate limits, and requesting new tools.
Yes. All tools are free for personal and commercial use with no attribution required. Many engineering teams use Orbit2x for JSON validation, API testing, network diagnostics, and security auditing in professional workflows.
Client-side tools have no limits — they run in your browser. Network proxy tools (DNS Lookup, HTTP Status Checker, etc.) allow up to 1 000 requests per IP per hour to prevent abuse, which is more than sufficient for normal use.
We ship 2–4 new tools per month based on user requests. Recent additions include the Crypto Calculator, PSU Calculator, and VRAM Calculator. Submit a request through the contact form.
Absolutely. Use the contact form or email info@orbit2x.com. The most useful requests include: the specific problem you want to solve, what tools you've already tried, and the expected input and output format.
About Orbit2x
Our mission, business model, and technology stack.
Because our architecture is inexpensive. A Go backend with Cloudflare CDN and zero database infrastructure costs under $50 per month even at 100 K+ monthly users. We keep overhead low so tools stay free.
All current tools will remain permanently free. We may add optional paid features in the future — such as cloud sync or team workspaces — but the core utilities will never be paywalled.
Currently Orbit2x is bootstrapped. We're exploring non-invasive advertising and optional premium features. We will never sell user data, require account registration, or use deceptive patterns to monetize.
A small team of full-stack developers and designers frustrated with fragmented, privacy-invasive developer tool sites. The platform is built with Go, Templ, Tailwind CSS v4, Alpine.js, and HTMX.
