No sign-up, no watermark, no daily limit. Fully open source.
Hey everyone — maker here 👋
I built this because most free PDF tools upload your file to a server to process it, then send it back. That always felt unnecessary and a little unsettling for anything personal (contracts, IDs, tax docs, etc).
Fast PDF Tools does the same common tasks (merge, split, compress, convert) but entirely client-side — the processing happens in your browser using JavaScript, so the file never actually gets sent anywhere. You can verify this yourself by opening dev tools → Network tab while using it.
It's completely free, no account needed, and the code is open source here: https://github.com/manishmandloi...
Would genuinely love feedback — especially if you hit any bugs or edge cases with specific files. Happy to answer anything about how it's built too.
