Loupe
Open PDFs, Word docs and images inside your web app
Lets people open PDFs, Word docs and images right inside your web app, instead of downloading them or opening another tab. You build the UI around it. Runs in the browser, with optional React bindings. Free for commercial use under a use licence.
Hi, I’m Andrei, and I’m building Loupe. If your app has documents next to a form, a case or an approval step, that’s the setup it’s meant for.
You can try files in the playground or install the package from the developer page. It’s v0.1.3, so expect the API to change. No OCR, and it isn’t open source.
The Word inspector on the homepage is a separate demo app, not an SDK inspection API.

Who hunted Loupe?
Loupe was hunted by Andrei Locota. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
