PDF tools shouldn’t ask you to hand over private documents just to rotate a page. So Plume runs where your files already are, right on your device, and the tools stay free, unlimited and watermark-free.
Three things Plume will never do: upload your PDFs to a server, put a watermark behind a paywall, or make money from what is inside your files. If that ever changes, hold me to this paragraph. Written July 2026.
Yes. Every core tool is free with no daily limits and no watermarks. Because the work runs in your browser, it costs us almost nothing, so we don’t need to charge for it.
No. Your PDFs are opened and processed entirely inside your browser tab. They are never sent to, or stored on, any server. You can even use Plume with your wifi off.
No, just open a tool and start. The free tools never need a sign-up. (Pro power features may add an optional account later.)
Free tools handle everyday documents comfortably. Very large or heavy files depend on your device’s memory, and like everything in Plume, they’re processed entirely on your device, never uploaded to a server.
The big difference is privacy and freedom: no uploads, no sign-up walls, no watermarks and no “2 tasks a day” caps. Same everyday tools, without the friction.
