Everything you can do with a PDF
A complete, categorized toolkit — from everyday merges and conversions to redaction, e-signatures, and AI. Every tool tells you exactly where it runs.
Build workflows, not one-off tasks
Most PDF sites make you repeat yourself. pdf.xyz keeps your files in a single workspace so you can chain tools into repeatable pipelines.
Example pipeline
Add your files
Drag in one file or a hundred. They stage in your browser — nothing uploads until a tool needs it.
Chain tools
Merge, then compress, then stamp and sign — line up steps once and run them as a single pipeline.
Export & reuse
Download instantly, or save a workflow as a preset you can rerun on the next batch in a click.
Understand documents, not just process them
Chat with a contract, summarize a long report, translate a brochure's text into another language, or pull clean structured data from invoices. Your content stays private: we use providers under agreements that prohibit training on data sent through their API, and we cannot control what a provider does beyond those terms.
- Answers grounded in your document, with page-level citations
- Summaries, translations, and structured data extraction
- Runs on secure infrastructure under provider agreements that prohibit training on your content
Your documents never become our data
Privacy isn't a setting on pdf.xyz — it's the architecture. Here's exactly what happens to your files.
In-browser by default
Most tools run with WebAssembly on your own device. Those tools never upload your files.
Encrypted when it leaves
The few heavy or AI tasks that need a server use TLS in transit and encrypted, isolated workers.
Auto-deleted on a schedule
Inputs are wiped the moment a job finishes. Downloads stop after 60 minutes, stored copies are erased by a daily storage rule, and a job record — the file's name, never its contents — lasts about a day.
No training on your data
AI tools run on secure infrastructure and your content is never used to train any model.
No account at all
Open a tool and go. There is no account here — nothing to create, nothing to remember, and nothing locked behind one.
Private by architecture
Our privacy promise is enforced by how the product is built — not by a policy you have to trust.
Free right now. All of it.
Every one of the 50 tools is free to use today — no account, no card, no trial clock. Here is exactly how that works and what will change.
In your browser
Merge PDF, Split PDF, Edit PDF, Sign PDF and 25 more run entirely on your device — your files never leave it.
- No account and no card, ever
- Unlimited local tasks
- These tools stay free
On our servers
The AI tools and heavy jobs run on secure, auto-deleting workers, because a browser alone cannot do them.
- Free to use right now
- Paid options will come for these — they genuinely cost money to run
- No date promised until there is one
When paid options arrive they will cover the server-side work above — and the in-browser tools stay free. Until then, there is simply nothing to pay for.
Open the workspaceQuestions, answered
Everything you might want to know before dropping in your first file.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
For most tools, no. Merge, split, compress, rotate, image conversions and more run entirely in your browser, so your files never leave your device. A handful of heavy or AI-powered tools use encrypted, auto-deleting workers — and each tool clearly labels where it runs.
Do I need to create an account?
No. There is nothing to sign up for — open any tool and start working immediately.
How much does it cost?
Nothing right now — every tool is free, with no account and no card. Paid options will come later for the parts that genuinely cost money to run, like AI and large server-side jobs. The in-browser tools stay free.
What file types are supported?
pdf.xyz spans 50 tools covering PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, images (JPG/PNG), HTML, Markdown, and more — both to and from PDF.
Is my content used to train AI models?
Never. AI tools run on secure infrastructure and your document content is never used to train any model.
What happens to files sent to a worker?
They're encrypted in transit and processed on an isolated worker. The input is wiped as soon as the job finishes; the download link stops working after 60 minutes, and the stored copy is erased by a daily storage rule after that. A job record — the file's name, never its contents — is kept for about a day.
Built so the privacy promise is checkable
pdf.xyz is a complete PDF toolkit that treats where your file goes as a product decision, not a policy page.
Honest about where files go
Every tool says up front whether it runs on your device or on a secure worker — on its card, on its page, and in its link preview. Nothing is processed somewhere you were not told about.
50 tools, no upsell maze
Merge, convert, sign, redact, OCR and more, in one place, with no sign-up to start and no watermark on the way out.
A real address, not a form
Security questions, enterprise requirements, bug reports, or a tool you wish existed — all go to one inbox that a person reads.
