Common pitfalls

Watch for unit, format, encoding, and browser memory limits on large inputs.
Keep a copy of important source material until the output is verified.

Privacy and security

Browser-first by design. The tool page explains any exception before you use it.

Your input is handled in the browser wherever the tool can process it locally. EpitomeTool does not add an upload step unless a tool page explicitly says so.
