Batch convert TIFF to JPG, from chat
Ask ChatGPT or Claude to convert a folder of scans or print files on your Mac or Windows PC. One message, every file, no image editor and no exporting files one at a time.
Works in ChatGPT and Claude, on the web and on your phone. See how it works in ChatGPT or Claude.
TIFF files are stuck in professional workflows.
Your scanner outputs TIFF. Your print shop sends TIFF. Your archive is full of TIFF. But try to share one: email rejects it, websites won't accept it, and most programs can't even open it. You're stuck with files nobody else can use, converting them one at a time through clunky software.
Just describe what you need. It handles the rest.
No Photoshop. No image editing software. Just describe what you want in ChatGPT or Claude.

- •Found 32 TIFF files on your Desktop. Two of them had several pages.
- •Saved each page of those two as its own JPG.
- •Kept the originals. The JPGs are in Desktop/JPG.
Batch convert scanner output
Name the folder with your scans. Desktop Commander converts every file to a shareable JPG, with no clicking through dialogs.
You say:
"Convert all TIFF files in my Scans folder to JPG"
Result:
47 scanned documents converted and ready to share
Handle multi-page TIFFs
Multi-page TIFF files from scanners? No problem. Extract each page as a separate JPG, or keep them organized by document.
You say:
"Split this multi-page TIFF into separate JPG files"
Result:
12-page document split into individual images
Organize as you convert
Don't just convert. Rename files, sort them into folders by date or type, and clean up your archive in one message.
You say:
"Convert these TIFFs to JPG and organize by year"
Result:
Files sorted into 2022/, 2023/, 2024/ folders
