The Alchemist Manifesto

Simple

Because life is complicated enough.

Software should work like gravity. You don't think about it, it just does its thing. Your tools should work for you, not against you.

Powerful

More horsepower than your neighbor's midlife crisis.

Alchemist turns your computer into a file-processing powerhouse. Dropzone for instant wins, Workflows node-based automation for background heavy lifting. Turn file frustration to freedom, focusing on what lights you up.

Frictionless

No setup. No hassle. No kidding.

Alchemist automatically handles boring stuff. Binary downloads? Manual setup? Technical headaches? We fixed that. You've got better things to do.

Private

Your files are your business. Literally.

Alchemist processes everything locally. Your files never leave your computer.

Durable

Built like they used to.

Remember when things lasted longer than your favorite TV show? Yeah, we miss that too. We're building Alchemist as a 50-year product.

Unlimited

No caps. No limits. No bullshit.

Otter caps you at 1,200 minutes/month for $204/year. We're unlimited for $99/year. Why? Because local processing costs us $0 in cloud fees. No artificial limits, no surprise overages, no upgrade nags. Just unlimited everything..

Beautiful

Award-winning design that doesn't suck.

We won CSS Design Awards for our work. Alchemist looks and feels like software should—clean, fast, and gorgeous. Real-time particle visualization, neumorphic buttons, and a UI that gets out of your way. Because professional tools shouldn't look like tax software.
