Circlecropimage.net –image tools: crop, enhance, compress, remove background

2•maysunyoung•9h ago
Hi HN,

I recently built CircleCropImage.net — a growing suite of lightweight, privacy-friendly image tools that all run 100% in your browser. No logins, no uploads, no tracking. Just fast, focused utilities that solve common image-editing tasks.

Current tools include: Circle Crop – Crop any image into a perfect circle with transparent background

Image Enhancer – Automatically improve sharpness, contrast, and detail

Background Remover – Remove image background instantly (powered by AI, local preview)

Compress to 500KB – Smart image compression for file size limits

Blur Image – Apply adjustable Gaussian blur to any photo

Resize Image – Resize by dimensions or percentage, while keeping quality

Why I made this: Most image tools either:

require signup,

upload your photos to a server,

or are crammed with ads and clutter.

I wanted something lightweight, privacy-first, and genuinely useful — especially for quick edits like preparing a profile picture, compressing an image for web, or blurring something before sharing.

Everything runs client-side (except the AI background remover which requests a cloud function), and works on desktop & mobile.

Would love your feedback or feature requests — thanks!
