About PDFOnly

PDFOnly was built by engineers who spent too many years fighting slow, ad-laden PDF websites that watermarked your output, throttled your file size, or quietly trained on your documents. We thought: what if it just worked, and was actually free?

Today, PDFOnly handles 12+ million files a month for everyone from solo freelancers to Fortune-500 legal teams. Our core PDF stack — qpdf, Ghostscript, OCRmyPDF — runs in isolated workers, never on shared infrastructure with other users' documents.

Our promises

• Files are auto-deleted within an hour. We don't need them after we hand back the result.
• We never train AI models on customer documents. Period.
• Pricing is transparent. There are no hidden caps designed to nudge you into a paid tier.
