Fylane, the file-repair layer for upload forms

fylane.dev Observed source

Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An API and browser extension that converts, compresses, extracts, and prepares files when an upload form rejects them.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-04 issue.

Field notes

Fylane exposes two paths through the same upload problem: an API for application-side processing and an extension that reacts to the rules of selected web forms. Its examples cover a 7.8 MB HEIC returned as three WebP sizes, a Pages résumé returned as PDF, Markdown, and a page preview, and a 24 MB TIFF turned into searchable PDF, OCR text, and extracted totals. The page states that image conversion stays on-device, while documents use cloud processing.
