Pricing questions

Are the current PDF tools free?

Yes. The current merge and compression tools are available without payment or an account, subject to the published file, file-count, browser-memory, and device limits.

Is every PDF guaranteed to become smaller?

No. Results depend on the file. BytesPDF returns the original when its generated version is not smaller rather than presenting a larger rewrite as a reduction.

What will Premium include and cost?

A final launch date, feature list, price, and plan limits have not been published. Planned ideas on this page are not a commitment until final plan terms are announced.

Does a free or future plan upload my PDFs?

The current core tools process PDF content locally. Any future feature that uses a different processing model must disclose that behavior before launch.
