Why Yagua?

Yagua began with the frustration of preparing images for websites: juggling online tools, hitting usage caps, and being asked to subscribe. It brings those tasks to your computer so you can work without relying on those services.

  • No account needed

    Open the app and get to work. No sign-up or sign-in is needed to use its tools.

  • No subscription

    A free, open-source app for your image tasks, with no monthly plans.

  • No daily usage caps

    Work without a daily usage counter. The number of files you can process depends on the tool and your computer.

  • No uploading images to a website

    Your files are processed on your computer, without sending them to an online tool.

Tools for your images

Supported formats and limits vary by module, installed codecs and platform.

Compression

Make your image files smaller without changing their format.

Format conversion

Watermark

Add your logo and adjust its position, size, opacity, and margin.

Rename

Rename files with numbers, dates, and letter-case changes, with a preview of the result.

OCR

Extract Spanish or English text from your images to copy or save as a TXT file.

EXIF metadata
