Why teams trust this converter
Zero-Trust Ready
Files never leave the tab. AAC binaries live inside WebAssembly memory and are disposed of immediately after producing a FLAC output.
Format-Aware Presets
We tune FFmpeg flags so AAC characteristics (color depth, metadata) persist when writing FLAC deliverables.
Ops-Level Observability
Each run exposes duration, file size deltas, and CPU hints so production teams can benchmark AAC → FLAC workflows.

Processing happens on-device, so most AAC to FLAC jobs finish in seconds. Larger videos scale with your CPU speed but never wait in a remote queue.
When should I pick FLAC instead of AAC?
Advanced Audio Coding offers successor to mp3 with better sound quality at similar bit rates. whereas Free Lossless Audio Codec is better suited for open-source lossless codec that preserves every bit of the original waveform.. Choose FLAC when you need audiophile libraries.
