Original Summary

Hi everyone! I'm a solo developer from Poland and I just launched PDFowo ( pdfowo.pl ), a set of PDF tools that run entirely in the browser. Why I built it: Most online PDF tools upload your documents to a server and limit free use to a few tasks per day. I wanted something where the file never leaves your device, which matters when the PDF is a contract, an invoice or has personal data in it. What it does today: - merge, split, rotate, reorder and delete pages - compress and convert (PDF to Word/Excel/PowerPoint/images, and files to PDF) - an in-browser editor: edit existing text, add signatures, links and form fields, OCR for scans - find and redact sensitive data (e-mails, phone numbers, national ID numbers, bank accounts) in one click - no sign-up, no daily limits, 4 languages (PL/EN/DE/ES) How it works: PDF.js and pdf-lib do the work in your browser, Tesseract.js handles OCR. You can check in your browser's Network tab that no file is sent anywhere. Hosting is on Cloudflare, accounts on Supabase, payments on Stripe. Business model, to be transparent: All tools are free (there will be ads for free users), and there is an optional Premium subscription that removes ads and adds convenience features like find and replace, bulk redaction, saved signatures and batch processing. I'd really appreciate honest feedback, especially on: the editor – anything confusing or broken? which tool or feature is missing for you? does the "files stay on your device" claim feel credible to you? Thanks for reading!   submitted by   /u/PDFowo [link]   [comments]
