Why superPDF

Big PDFs and AI that stay on your device. superPDF is free, with no account and no upload.

Six reasons

  • Big files stay on your computer

    Open and edit 1 GB PDFs and 2,000-page documents right in your browser. Your files aren't uploaded.

  • AI that doesn't take your files

    Chat, summaries and agents run on your device or with your own AI key. No superPDF server in between.

  • Scanned pages, read for you

    Scans are recognized automatically. For hard pages, an optional open model reads them more accurately, on your computer.

  • Agents you stay in charge of

    Describe the result. The agent plans the steps; you approve, edit or skip each one, and can undo it.

  • Works with your AI tools

    A command-line tool, REST API and MCP server let Claude Code, Cursor and Codex work on PDFs on your machine (available from October 14, 2026).

  • Free. No account.

    Every tool, with no sign-up and no limits on file size.
