FileNest provides the batch renaming, image processing, image OCR, text-to-document, PDF, CSV/TSV/JSON and duplicate-detection tools clearly listed on its tool pages. OCR offers both a clearly disclosed transient High Accuracy cloud mode and a Local Privacy mode that keeps source images on-device. Formats or capabilities not listed there are outside the current service scope.
No credit card is required. Core batch renaming and duplicate detection remain free. Credit-consuming image, OCR, text-document, PDF and data conversions require a free account and share a server-enforced rolling limit of 5 successful files per 24 hours; file tools generally allow 25 MB per file and up to 3 files per batch, and unused credits from failed or incomplete files are returned.
For new purchases, FileNest currently offers a one-time $2.99 24H Pass plus one Pro tier billed at $4.99 monthly or $39.99 annually. After payment confirmation, the 24H Pass provides 50 standard-processing units for 24 hours, does not auto-renew, and does not include OCR or Pro-only advanced capabilities. Pro uses secure Stripe Checkout and renews automatically on the selected monthly or annual cadence; Checkout shows the final amount and applicable taxes. Existing legacy quarterly or legacy annual subscriptions may continue on their current Stripe price and cadence while they remain active; those legacy prices are not offered for new Checkout sessions.
Every active Pro subscription receives and resets 300 standard conversions every 30 days regardless of billing cadence. The current file-size safety cap is 50 MB. Batch caps vary by tool and completed stress testing: image conversion, resize, compression and enhancement currently support up to 50 files per batch; general file tools currently use a 20-file Pro cap; High Accuracy cloud OCR is currently capped at 5 images per batch with a lower per-image upload safety limit. Each tool shows its active limit before files are accepted and before processing starts. FileNest does not promise unlimited conversion or advertise capacity that has not passed testing.
Pro automatic renewal can be cancelled from account billing management, and Pro normally remains active through the current paid period. A first Pro renewal failure enters a grace period of up to 7 days while Stripe may retry. Successful recovery keeps Pro; only an unresolved failure after the grace period, subscription end or confirmed full refund returns the account to Free. The 24H Pass is a one-time purchase, does not auto-renew and expires when its access window ends. Saved templates are retained after Pro downgrade. Refunds follow applicable law, billing facts and the published refund rules.
Downgrading does not delete saved naming templates. Advanced template execution and other Pro access may pause, while templates remain available after resubscription or until lawfully deleted.
Review previews and keep backups of important files. OCR accuracy is not guaranteed; blur, skew, glare, handwriting and complex layouts can cause missing or incorrect text, and users must review results. Read and confirm the transient-cloud notice before using High Accuracy OCR; choose Local Privacy mode if you do not want images to leave the device. When adding a custom background, you must have permission to use it and avoid images containing sensitive information that should not be shared. Do not use the service for unlawful content, system attacks, quota circumvention or infringement of others' rights.
First-party evidence datasets, compatibility results and processing-boundary records that FileNest explicitly publishes as machine-readable JSON on evidence and benchmark pages are free to access, index, link to and cite. You may reference factual results for research, comparison, journalism, teaching or product evaluation if you identify FileNest WorkTools and the corresponding dataset URL, preserve material scope limitations, do not present modified data as an official FileNest result, and do not imply FileNest endorsement of a third-party conclusion. Except where applicable law permits otherwise, this license does not grant the right to resell copied datasets as a standalone commercial database, impersonate an official FileNest source through FileNest trademarks, relicense source code, or acquire rights in other protected website assets.
