👋 Hi Product Hunt!
I'm excited to share **ButDoc** with the community.
The idea came from a simple frustration: every time I needed to edit, convert, or sign a PDF, I kept running into paywalls, subscriptions, or mandatory sign-ups for basic tasks.
So I decided to build an alternative.
**ButDoc** is a free online PDF toolkit where you can edit, convert, merge, compress, and sign PDFs directly in your browser.
✨ No sign-up required.
💸 No subscriptions.
🔒 No hidden fees.
⚡ Fast, secure, and works on any device.
My goal is simple: make essential PDF tools accessible to everyone—especially students, freelancers, workers, and small businesses.
This is just the beginning, and I'd genuinely love your feedback. What features would you like to see next? Thanks for checking out ButDoc and for supporting independent makers! ❤️
All PDF tools in one place, not locked behind a signup and/or paywall is certainly handy. Curious how (if) different Butdoc is from the likes of "I Love PDF". Congratulations on the launch.
Edit - Went through the other comment. Understood. Good luck.
Free PDF tools is genuinely one of the most saturated categories on the web - Smallpdf, ILovePDF, Stirling-PDF for self-hosters, even Adobe's own free web tools. The no sign-up angle is a good start but most established players already do that for basic ops. Curious what the actual differentiator is beyond the price point, and what the business model looks like long-term - ads, a pro tier eventually, or something else?
