Click “Choose Files” or drag your IGES file onto the page, optionally adjust the settings, then hit Convert. Your STL file downloads straight from your browser. Nothing is uploaded anywhere.

No. The conversion engine runs entirely in your web browser using WebAssembly. Your files never leave your device. You can even disconnect from the internet after the page loads and keep converting.
