MiniMax Converter

What MiniMax Converter is

MiniMax Converter is an offline desktop toolkit for converting files and handling other file, media, and utility tasks on Linux, macOS, and Windows. It supports more than 200 formats across images, documents, audio, video, archives, ebooks, 3D meshes, and fonts. Users can add folders or any number of files for batch conversion, with no file-count limit or watermark. The app includes 150 built-in tools across 10 menus, as well as tools for individual formats on conversion screens.

PDF functions include conversion to DOCX, OCR for scanned PDFs, encryption and decryption, merging, splitting, rotation, and extraction. On-device AI features cover speech transcription, background removal, image upscaling, and voice cloning. Other media options include downloading media from URLs, generating subtitles and lyrics, restoring audio, and ripping or burning discs. The maker says conversions run locally, without file uploads, telemetry, tracking, an account requirement, or app-stored or transmitted user data. The app does not require an internet connection for use, although some conversion engines and AI models download on first use. Linux is free for non-commercial use; Windows and macOS are covered by a €20 one-time lifetime license that includes future updates.
