👋 Our Story

Built to make PDF tools
simple and free

We believe everyone deserves access to great PDF tools without paying a fortune or dealing with complicated software.

PDF tools for everyone

PDF Simpler was built out of frustration. Every time we needed to merge a PDF or compress a file, we'd end up on some sketchy website full of ads, or worse — pay $20/month for software we'd use twice a year.

So we built PDF Simpler — a clean, fast, free tool that does exactly what it says. No ads, no dark patterns, no surprise charges. Just simple PDF tools that work.

We're powered entirely by open-source libraries. Zero paid APIs. That means we can keep the core tools free forever and pass the savings to you.
