We make PDFs less of a chore.
KovaPDF is a set of online PDF tools. You can edit, convert, compress, sign and read your documents right in the browser, with nothing to install.
It started with one small PDF job
You know the kind. A form that only takes files under 200 KB. A contract with one wrong date. A scanned page you need as text.
Each job takes a minute, but finding a tool that did it without an install, a sign-up or a monthly fee took far longer. So in 2026 we built the tools we kept looking for, and put them all in one place.
What we care about
Your files stay yours
24 of our tools never upload your file; it stays on your device. The others delete it as soon as the job is done.
Every language counts
The whole site works in 27 languages, and our text recognition reads nine, including Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic and Chinese.
No account to get started
Every tool works without signing up. Make an account only if you want one.

Honest about the limits
Files sent to our servers travel over TLS-encrypted connections and are processed in server memory. Because server-side processing requires access to the document's contents, these tools do not provide end-to-end (zero-knowledge) encryption. Tools that run in the browser never transmit the file.
Text recognition (OCR) output is probabilistic and may contain errors, so verify critical text. Apart from documents submitted for signature, files are not retained after processing. The Security page has the details.
