Every feature, in one place
PDFCure is a set of PDF tools that run in your browser, plus a few AI-assisted tools for when editing isn't enough. Here's exactly what's available and how each part works.
Runs in your browser
Every editing tool processes your file locally using JavaScript — nothing is uploaded for Merge, Split, Compress, or any tool outside the AI category. See exactly which three tools are the exception on the Privacy Policy page.
No account required
Every tool works immediately. There's no sign-up wall, no email capture, and no watermark added to your files.
Installable, works offline
Add PDFCure to your home screen or desktop as an app. After a first visit, the editing tools keep working with no internet connection.
26-language interface
Switch the interface language from the header — covers the navigation, hero, and common actions across the whole site.
Feedback, built in
A feedback button in the header and a full contact page mean a real way to reach someone, not a dead-end support email.
Honest about limitations
Tools that can't be done well in a browser (PDF encryption, OCR, PDF↔PowerPoint) are clearly marked "coming soon" instead of faking a broken result.
