Frequently Asked Questions

Is it more private than Sejda?
Yes — Sejda uploads files to their servers. Our tool processes everything in your browser — files never leave your device.
What if I need to process more than 200 pages?
No limit — split a large PDF and process sections if needed, or process the whole document at once.
Is this PDF redactor completely free?
Yes, 100% free. No account needed, no watermarks, no file size limits. All processing happens in your browser.
Are my files safe and private?
Absolutely. Your PDFs never leave your device. All redaction happens locally in your browser using WebAssembly — we never see your files.

True redaction permanently removes the underlying text data from the PDF file. Our tool ensures sensitive content is permanently deleted from the file structure, not just hidden visually.
