// what it does

Forensic-grade inspection. One-click cleanup.

Deep metadata scan

Parse XMP, document info, embedded fonts, JavaScript blobs and structural anomalies. See exactly what your PDF is leaking.

AI fingerprint detection

Identify telltale markers left by GPT, Claude, Gemini, and exported AI workflows. Know if a doc looks AI-generated before publishing.

Deep sanitization

Strip every identifying field — author, organization, timestamps, edit history, software trace, AI signatures — in one pass.

Local-first by design

Your files never touch our servers. Parsing and rewriting happen in your browser via WebAssembly. Zero uploads, zero logs.

Bulk + priority queue

Business plan ships with bulk processing (up to 100 PDFs) and a priority queue for heavy workloads.

Optional cloud history

Pro accounts get a cloud-synced session log of the last 50 scans — for audit and re-export. Disable anytime.

Built for anyone who can't afford to leak.

Lawyers, journalists, consultants, M&A teams, government workers, founders sending decks — anyone who shares PDFs with parties they don't fully trust.

// faq

Questions, answered.

Do my PDFs leave my computer?

No. Parsing, scanning and sanitization run entirely in your browser via WebAssembly. We don't upload, log or store the contents of your files.

What's an 'AI fingerprint'?

AI tools leave subtle traces in exported documents — specific producer strings, font subset patterns, hidden Unicode markers. We detect the most common ones from GPT, Claude and Gemini.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Subscriptions cancel with one click. You keep access until the end of the billing period. 30-day money-back guarantee.
