One tool's output is not silently pushed into the next tool without the user's knowledge.
Not another button. A file workflow that reaches a finished handoff.
FileNest combines existing tools around real office jobs: process, review, then hand off. This stage keeps browser and user control instead of silently uploading files or transferring unapproved content between tools in the name of automation.
WORKFLOW CONTRACT 1.0
More automation requires clearer boundaries.
Last updated 2026-08-30. Current mode is guided_browser_workflow, not a server-side black-box pipeline.
Images, filenames, OCR text, PDF page plans and parsed data retain human review.
Every workflow states what it cannot currently do so marketing copy cannot masquerade as capability.
5 executable guided workflows
Choose by finished outcome instead of guessing which tool comes first.
web-image-delivery
Web image delivery
Standardize image format, dimensions and byte size, then finish with clean delivery filenames.
Website maintenanceContent teamsProduct assets
1
Image Batch Converter
Open First standardize JPG, PNG or WebP output and handle resize, crop and light image adjustments in the same workspace.
Download the processed image copies.2
Batch Image Compression & Size Optimization
Open If further byte reduction is needed, compare actual generated sizes rather than estimated savings.
Keep the visually acceptable versions.3
Online Batch File Renamer
Open Finish with consistent prefixes, suffixes, numbering or replacements and review every proposed filename first.
Download the renamed-copy ZIP without overwriting originals.On-device workflow progressOnly step checkmarks are stored; your file contents are not stored here.
0/3 · 0%Outcome
A reviewed batch of consistently named image copies prepared for web publishing.
Privacy path
This workflow is currently composed of browser-local image processing and local renaming; working-file contents do not need to be uploaded to FileNest.
Current limitation
This is currently a guided multi-step workflow. FileNest does not silently pass downloaded results from one tool into the next.
email-attachment-cleanup
Email attachment cleanup
Reduce image attachment size first, then standardize filenames to lower attachment clutter and size-limit risk.
OperationsCustomer supportSalesRemote teams
1
Batch Image Compression & Size Optimization
Open Batch-compress JPG or WebP, optionally resize, and inspect the actual resulting byte size.
Keep only results that remain visually acceptable after review.2
Online Batch File Renamer
Open Standardize filenames by client, date, project or sequence.
Download the organized ZIP, then attach it to email yourself.On-device workflow progressOnly step checkmarks are stored; your file contents are not stored here.
0/2 · 0%Outcome
A lighter, easier-to-recognize batch of image attachments.
Privacy path
Image compression and file renaming both run in the current browser.
Current limitation
FileNest does not connect to your mailbox, send email automatically or read recipients.
scan-to-editable-document
Scan to editable document
Improve scan readability, recognize text, then export the reviewed result into a common document format.
Office archivesStudy materialsPaper recordsSmall offices
1
Batch Image Clarity & Color Enhancer
Open Apply restrained brightness, contrast and sharpening to dim or soft scans without treating enhancement as recovery of missing detail.
Download the easier-to-read image copies.2
Image to Text OCR & Document Export
Open Choose Local Privacy or High Accuracy according to the privacy requirement, then review recognition word by word.
Approve the recognized text before export.3
Text to Document Converter
Open When a new layout is needed, generate DOCX, PDF, TXT, Markdown or HTML from the approved text.
Download the final document and check the layout again.On-device workflow progressOnly step checkmarks are stored; your file contents are not stored here.
0/3 · 0%Outcome
Editable text and document copies that have been reviewed word by word.
Privacy path
Image enhancement and text-to-document generation are browser-local. OCR explicitly separates Local Privacy from the transient-cloud High Accuracy mode.
Current limitation
The current OCR entry accepts JPG, PNG and WebP, not PDF. Handwriting, glare, blur and complex layouts can still produce recognition errors.
pdf-delivery-pack
PDF delivery pack
Clean up names and order first, then merge, split or extract the PDF pages needed for delivery.

1
Online Batch File Renamer
Open Standardize names and numbering for cover, body, appendices or dates before merging to reduce ordering mistakes.
Download renamed copies without changing source files.2
Merge, Split & Create PDFs in Batches
Open Merge in final order or split/extract selected pages, and verify the page plan before download.
Download the PDF or multi-result ZIP.On-device workflow progressOnly step checkmarks are stored; your file contents are not stored here.
0/2 · 0%Outcome
Clearly ordered, consistently named PDF delivery files containing only the pages that are needed.
Privacy path
Currently supported renaming, PDF merge, split, extraction and JPG/PNG-to-PDF operations all run locally in the browser.
Current limitation
Encrypted PDFs, PDF OCR and PDF-to-Office are not currently supported.
data-handoff-cleanup
Data handoff cleanup
Convert CSV, TSV or JSON into the structure the recipient needs, then standardize filenames for handoff.

Batch CSV, TSV & JSON Conversion
Open Parse and preview CSV, TSV or JSON first, then confirm fields and the target format before download.
Keep the data results that pass preview review.2
Online Batch File Renamer
Open Standardize filenames by date, system, batch or version.
Download the renamed-copy ZIP before handoff.On-device workflow progressOnly step checkmarks are stored; your file contents are not stored here.
0/2 · 0%Outcome
Previewed data files with a consistent format and clearer delivery filenames.
Privacy path
CSV, TSV and JSON conversion plus renaming run in the current browser; data contents do not need to be uploaded.
Current limitation
FileNest does not claim support for every non-standard CSV dialect; top-level JSON must be an object or array of objects.
Validate which workflows people actually use before turning the winners into one-pass local pipelines.
This avoids building dozens of unused automations just to imitate larger suites. Entry, step completion and Pro conversion should decide which flows deserve deeper engineering.
