Audience
Freelancers, students, legal and finance teams, and small to midsize businesses that work heavily with PDFs and need private, browser-based tools to merge, convert, sign, OCR, redact, and compress documents.
About Arthize
Arthize is a private, hosted PDF workspace that puts 50+ tools in one place — merge, split, convert (to/from Word, Excel, images), sign, OCR, redact, compress, watermark, protect and more. Instead of scattering documents across a dozen free-but-ad-heavy sites, you work in one clean workspace where files are processed privately and auto-deleted after each job — never used to train models, sold, or mined. There’s a free-forever tier (no card), Pro from $6/month or $48/year, and a $149 one-time lifetime plan. Arthize is a lower-cost alternative to Adobe Acrobat, Smallpdf and iLovePDF for people who want serious PDF tooling without the subscription bloat.
