Hello from a solopreneur and developer! 👋
Hello Product Hunt community!
I’m Vishal, a solopreneur and developer, Product passionate about data privacy and building useful utilities. I’ve been quietly hanging around the community for a bit, learning from all the incredible launches, and figured it was finally time to properly step up and say hello!
What I'm building:
Like many of you, I frequently use web-based tools to edit, merge, or redact PDFs containing sensitive information (like contracts, IDs, and financial documents). Every single time I uploaded a file to a popular cloud utility, I felt an uncomfortable spike of anxiety: Where is this data actually going? Who owns that server?
To solve my own problem, I built PrivacyScanPDF.com.
It’s an all-in-one PDF toolkit (Merge, Split, Compress, Sign, and Redact) that works 100% client-side using WebAssembly. Your files never touch a server, meaning your data remains entirely yours.
The DevTools Challenge 🛡️
Because talk is cheap when it comes to privacy, I love inviting tech-savvy builders to open their browser Developer Tools (F12) -> Network Tab while using the site. You can verify yourself that there are exactly zero network requests containing your file data.
Let's connect!
I’m currently polishing the product and preparing for an official Product Hunt launch soon. I would love to connect with fellow indie hackers, privacy enthusiasts, and makers.
What are you currently building or launching? Drop your links below, I'd love to support your journey!
If you have a quick second to check out the site, what is one PDF feature you absolutely cannot live without?
Excited to be a part of the family! 🚀
