A free iLovePDF alternative that never uploads your files
If you came here searching for iLovePDF, you probably just want to merge, split or compress a PDF without creating an account. Tool Genie does exactly that — and it does it inside your browser tab, so the document never travels to a server at all.
Your files stay on your device
Every PDF tool here runs on your own machine using WebAssembly and JavaScript. Contracts, invoices and medical records are never uploaded, queued or stored.
No account, no daily task limit
There is nothing to sign up for and no counter of how many files you processed today. Open a tool, do the job, close the tab.
No watermarks on the result
The PDF you download is the PDF you made. Nothing is stamped onto it and nothing is added to the metadata.
Works offline once loaded
Because the processing code lives in your browser, a shaky connection only affects loading the page — not merging a 200-page document.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Tool Genie really free?
Yes. Every tool on the site is free to use with no account. The site is funded by ads on the page, not by limiting what the tools can do.
Can it handle the same file sizes?
Up to 100 MB per job, and up to 20 files at a time. Because processing is local, the practical ceiling is your device's memory rather than an upload quota.
Which PDF tasks are covered?
Merging, splitting, compressing, rotating, deleting and extracting pages, page numbers, watermarks, cropping, and conversion to and from JPG, Word, Excel and PowerPoint.
