Why is KeepPDF completely free?
Unlike older services that run hundreds of costly backend servers to process your files in the cloud, KeepPDF utilizes cutting-edge WebAssembly (Wasm) and Web Workers. All PDF computation happens right inside your browser on your own device. This eliminates massive server infrastructure costs and allows us to keep KeepPDF completely free, sustainable, and 100% private forever.
