PhantomEtch
Edit, sign, merge, compress, OCR, redact — all in your browser.
PhantomEtch is a browser-based PDF editor that processes files entirely on the client side, meaning no files are ever uploaded to a server. It offers a range of tools including signing, annotating, merging, splitting, OCR, redaction, comparison, and AI-powered analysis. A free tier is available with no account required, while a Pro subscription unlocks all tools.
PhantomEtch runs all PDF processing client-side in the browser using JavaScript, ensuring files never leave the user's device.
