What SimplePDF is

SimplePDF is a browser-based PDF tool for editing, filling, signing, and managing documents. Its editing tools add text, checkboxes, and images, detect form fields automatically, and support signature fields. Page controls let users merge PDFs, reorder, rotate, or delete pages, and insert blank pages or additional PDFs. The maker says editing takes place in the browser and documents stay on the user’s device. For business workflows, PDFs can be embedded on websites so organizations can collect submissions and automate processing. SimplePDF offers a Chrome extension, React component, web script, iframe, Bubble plugin, and WordPress plugin, and connects with Make and n8n. Completed submissions can trigger email alerts or webhooks, and documents can be saved to S3-compatible storage. Data can be exported as CSV or Excel, by webhook, or through the API. Free is available free of charge, with no monthly quota for documents and submissions. Paid plans start with Basic at $99 a month; a seven-day trial is available. GDPR compliance is marked on every plan, while HIPAA compliance is marked on Free, Pro, and Premium.

Who it suits

SimplePDF suits individuals and professionals who need to edit, fill, or sign PDFs, as well as teams that collect documents through embedded forms. Its submission automation, integrations, storage options, and dashboard plans also fit businesses handling document workflows at different volumes.
