About
Built for people who work with PDFs every day.
Why PDFsuite exists
Most PDF tools make you upload your files to a stranger's server. Contracts, invoices, medical records, signed agreements - all sent over the wire to be processed, stored, and potentially breached. The "free" tools are especially troubling: if you're not paying, your data is the product.
PDFsuite started from a simple question: what if every PDF operation ran entirely in the browser? No upload step. No server waiting on the other end. Just WebAssembly doing the work on your machine, the same way native desktop software does - except it works on any OS, in any browser, with nothing to install.
The technical approach
Every tool in PDFsuite runs on WebAssembly libraries compiled to run in the browser: pdf-lib for PDF manipulation, PDF.js for rendering, Tesseract.js for OCR in 14 languages. Your files are loaded into browser memory, processed, and the result is returned directly to your Downloads folder. The network tab in DevTools stays silent during every operation - because there is no server request to make.
This isn't just a privacy promise. It's an architectural fact you can verify yourself. Open DevTools, go to the Network tab, filter for XHR requests, then run any tool. You'll see nothing - no file transfer, no upload, no callback to our servers.
The product
PDFsuite ships 28 tools covering the full range of PDF work: merge, split, compress, rotate, reorder, crop, extract pages, delete pages, convert to and from Word and images, add watermarks and page numbers, protect with passwords, redact sensitive content, run OCR on scanned documents, and more.
It's available as a web app and installable as a PWA for fully offline use. Pricing is $29 per year - roughly two dollars a month for tools that used to require a $180/year Adobe subscription.
