About PDFFever
PDFFever is a small, focused toolset for the PDF work people actually do all the time — turning an image into a PDF, combining a few files, shrinking one down, or locking it before sending it on. No accounts, no dashboards to learn, nothing saved that you didn't ask to save.
Our mission
Give everyone a fast, private way to work with PDFs — without uploading sensitive documents to a service that keeps a copy of them. Contracts, IDs, financial statements: the kind of files people run through PDF tools shouldn't have to sit on someone else's server after the job is done.
Our vision
We want PDFFever to be the tool you reach for precisely because it's boring and predictable: upload, process, download, done. As we grow — an API for automating this in your own workflows, higher limits for teams that need them — the in-memory, nothing-stored architecture stays the same.
Security commitment
This isn't a policy promise layered on top of a system that could technically retain your files — it's how the backend is actually built:
Nothing touches disk
Every upload is held as an in-memory buffer for the duration of the request, then discarded. Files are never written to a filesystem.
No database, no history
PDFFever has no database of your files. There's no "recent conversions" list because nothing is kept around to list.
No third-party storage
Files aren't forwarded to cloud storage, analytics tools, or any other service. Processing happens entirely inside our own API.
Open request → response, nothing in between
You upload a file and get a result back in the same request. There are no background jobs or queues that could leave a copy behind.
