What Admin Teams Are Saying
Trusted by lecturers and students across Sri Lankan universities
"Every semester we process 2,000+ ID photos and rejection for wrong size or orientation was a constant problem. This tool validates and crops in seconds - we shared it with students so they submit correct photos the first time."
"The 35x45 mm preset matched our card printer requirements exactly. The resolution validation was a bonus - we were getting blurry prints because students submitted phone screenshots. Now we catch that immediately."
"The drag crop handles are simple enough for students to use themselves. We embedded the link in our student portal and the number of rejected submissions dropped by over 70% in the first month."
"Runs entirely in the browser which is important for us - we can't install software on shared campus computers and can't upload student photos to third-party cloud services due to data protection policy."
