The difference

Free PDF sites, or a real workspace.

Most people upload sensitive documents to random websites. Here is what changes with PDF Caddy.

Without PDF Caddy

  • Uploading confidential client documents to random free websites
  • Taking a signed filing on trust, because checking it means uploading it somewhere
  • No record of who changed a statement, or when
  • Paying per-page for basic operations like merge and split

With PDF Caddy

  • Most work happens in your browser, so nothing leaves the machine
  • Validate a DSC on your own desktop, offline if you want to
  • Every edit carries a verifiable attestation and audit entry
  • One subscription for every PDF operation your practice needs

Tools

60 tools, six categories, one workspace

Everything from a quick merge to archival conversion and version comparison, with the audit trail a regulated practice needs.

Trust and compliance

Built for regulated industries

PDF Caddy is built around the controls that financial services, legal, audit and healthcare teams are asked to show.

DPDP Act, 2023

India's Digital Personal Data Protection

  • Consent recorded per purpose, with timestamp and IP
  • Right to erasure. Personal data pseudonymized on request
  • Data export on request, from your own account page
  • 39 tools never receive your document. The rest hard-delete your upload when the job ends, and the result as soon as you download it

GDPR

EU General Data Protection Regulation

  • Right to access and portability. Export everything we hold
  • Right to erasure, from your own account page
  • Privacy by design. 39 of the 60 tools transmit nothing at all
  • No CDN and no analytics. Our processors are named: Hostinger for hosting, Google and Microsoft for sign-in, Razorpay for payments

SOX controls

Supports Sarbanes-Oxley internal controls

  • Hash-chained audit log of every sign-in, account, admin and server action
  • Database triggers refuse edits and deletes, and the hash chain exposes any tampering
  • Role-based access control, with admin separate from any plan
  • Edit attestation. A SHA-256 record of a document before and after

Compliance is not a feature, it is the foundation

The audit log is hash-chained and append-only, enforced by database triggers rather than by our own code being careful. Consent is recorded per purpose. Access, export and erasure are things you do yourself, from your account page, without asking us.
