Why I made it

I needed one tool.
I was opening ten.

One site to download a video from YouTube or social media. Another to convert audio, another for video. Then one for transcription. Each time, I started searching all over again, while time slipped away.

Often, as soon as I found something that worked, I hit a limit. Without internet, I couldn't do anything. So I'd look for an application with the same features, only to find subscriptions, limited editions and free tools that soon became paid. It grew frustrating.

So I made Statico Converter with Codex: one tool with what I need, for my Mac. This web edition brings audio conversion, videos up to 30 minutes long, microphone recording and transcription into the browser. Your files stay on your device: the browser downloads the engine when needed and does the work there.
