Hey Product Hunt 👋 I built OnDevicePDF because of a small, uncomfortable moment I think everyone's had: you drag a PDF into a free online tool — a contract, a tax form, a medical record — and you have no idea what just happened to it. Was it uploaded? Stored? Copied? You're trusting a deletion policy you never read. So I built the version I wanted: 25+ PDF tools (merge, split, compress, convert, OCR, sign, redact, protect) where the file is processed right in your browser. For 22 of the 23 tools, nothing is uploaded — there's no server to send it to. No account, no watermarks, works offline after the first load. The part I'm most proud of isn't a feature — it's the honesty. A lot of "private" tools claim "100% local" and hope nobody checks. I didn't want to do that. There's exactly one tool (the advanced PDF Editor) that uses a temporary, auto-deleted backend for six specific operations like OCR and complex text edits — and instead of hiding it, we publish a page listing exactly which tool that is and why: https://www.ondevicepdf.com/data... Building it, the biggest shift was realizing "browser-based" isn't the selling point anymore — plenty of tools do that now. The trust comes from being specific about where your file goes, tool by tool. That's the thing I'd want as a user, so that's what I made. It's free. I'd genuinely love your feedback — especially where it breaks or where you don't believe a privacy claim. Poke holes in it. 🙏 — Ravi
