Before you use it
Alpha software, moving fast (new versions most days). Keep copies of important files and expect some rough edges.
Why it's useful
Open, comment on, fill in and sign PDFs, rearrange pages, merge and split files, and lock documents with a password. It has an optional MCP server so an agent like Claude can work on your PDFs, and it only runs when you switch it on.
What it needs
Desktop app for Windows, Mac and Linux, or run it in your browser. Nothing to set up and no graphics card needed.
