keyboard-first - no signup - browser-only
A fast developer workbench
for the tools you reach for every day.
BriarKit is a modern browser-based workbench for JSON, regex, encoding, hashes, timezones, text transformations, color workflows, network utilities, code formatting, and more. The goal is not just more tools. It is faster execution, stronger defaults, better shortcuts, and shareable states.
Your tool input is 100% private, and stays in your browser only. Verify it by opening DevTools and checking the Network tab.
