Free Smallpdf Alternative — No Subscription

The same everyday PDF tasks, without the paywall or the upload.

Smallpdf is polished, but its free use is time-limited and most tools nudge you into a paid subscription after a couple of tasks a day. Your files are also uploaded to its servers for processing.

EasyFileKit is free with no subscription and no task counter. Your files are processed entirely in your browser — never uploaded to a server. Below is an honest side-by-side.
