Online PDF tools — no upload to any server.
Most PDF tools upload your files to a server. DailyBuddy gives you 30 online PDF tools that process your documents directly in the browser — your files never leave your device. No file size limits, no watermarks.
What makes these online PDF tools different.
DailyBuddy PDF Tools gives you 30 professional tools for editing, securing, and organizing PDF files — and most of them run entirely in your browser. That means you can rotate, split, merge, compress, add watermarks, redact sensitive content, or send documents for signing. Because files are processed in the browser, they never touch a server — making this one of the most privacy-friendly PDF solutions available
.
However, three tools that handle passwords and permissions require server processing. These run on EU servers in Germany, so your data still stays protected. Everything else stays on your device. In addition, there are no file size limits, no daily caps, and no watermarks added to your output files.
PDF Tools also works seamlessly with the other DailyBuddy apps: for example, share files securely with Send, coordinate your team with Projects, manage personal to-dos with Tasks, save your bookmarks with Favorites, or track scores with Game Sheet.

Unlike other online PDF tools, your files stay in your browser or on EU servers.
26 of 30 tools process your files entirely in your browser — so nothing gets uploaded. The three server-side tools, on the other hand, run exclusively in certified EU data centers in Germany. Therefore, the platform is fully GDPR compliant — built and operated by a German company. Learn more about GDPR
