Compresses huge design exports without trashing the image quality. I send PDFs to clients all day and this has replaced two paid apps for me.

The 'chat with PDF' tool reads contracts and pulls out clauses better than I expected. Big time-saver for case prep.

Split, rotate, OCR — all the boring stuff just works. Would love a desktop app one day, but the web version is more than enough.

OCR on scanned papers is shockingly accurate. I summarize 200-page reports in under a minute. Free tier covers everything I need.

Clean interface, no popups, no forced signups. It just lets you work. Exactly what a PDF tool should feel like in 2026.
