    Coming Soon

    We're building proper AES encryption for client-side PDF protection. We won't ship a tool that gives a false sense of security. When this launches, it will genuinely protect your documents.

    Why the wait? The most popular browser PDF library (pdf-lib) does not support encryption. We're evaluating secure alternatives to ensure your passwords actually protect your files.

    Meanwhile, try these alternatives:

    • Adobe Acrobat: Industry standard, full encryption support
    • LibreOffice: Free desktop app with PDF export and password
    • macOS Preview: File → Export as PDF → Encrypt
