What it solves

FlyingMouse Format is an offline file converter for Windows and macOS that allows users to convert a wide variety of file formats without uploading data to the cloud, ensuring privacy and security.

How it works

It bundles several powerful open-source engines—including FFmpeg, LibreOffice, Poppler, Tesseract, and Pandoc—to handle conversions locally. The application provides a mouse-themed graphical user interface (GUI) for easy drag-and-drop use, but also includes a complete Command Line Interface (CLI) for power users and a mechanism to integrate its capabilities as "skills" into AI agents like Claude or Codex.

Who it’s for

It is designed for individuals who need a versatile, all-in-one conversion tool for images, documents, audio, and video, particularly those who prioritize offline processing and data privacy.

Highlights

• Broad Format Support: Converts between images (including RAW camera files), text, Word/Excel/PPT, PDF, audio, video, and e-books.
• Smart PDF Extraction: Features intelligent table extraction from PDFs to Excel and layout-preserving conversion from PDF to Word.
• Local Processing: All conversions happen on the user's machine, avoiding cloud uploads.
• Agent Integration: One-click installation of skills for AI agents to trigger conversions via CLI.
• Batch Processing: Supports bulk conversions with per-file progress tracking and result previews.
• Cross-Platform: Available for Windows (including a legacy build for Windows 7) and macOS.
