What it does

Processing sensitive data shouldn't mean compromising privacy. With cloud AI platforms raising trust concerns and compliance hurdles, privacy-centric firms need complete control. LocalPDF lets you analyze legal, medical, and financial documents 100% locally on your device. Zero data leaves your machine, ensuring enterprise-grade security compliance without relying on OpenAI, Gemini or Anthropic.

LocalPDF is a native macOS app that lets you chat with PDFs, DOC, TXT, CSV, and more using Apple Intelligence. 100% offline, on-device AI. Your data never leaves your Mac.

Built exclusively for macOS. LocalPDF uses Apple Intelligence to analyze your documents entirely on-device. No cloud. No API calls. Just your Mac doing the work. We leverage Apple's Native frameworks to give you blazing-fast AI without the privacy trade-offs. Your sensitive legal files, financial statements, and personal documents never leave your local drive. LocalPDF operates completely offline. No telemetry, no cloud analysis, no hidden API calls. Built with SwiftUI and Apple's native frameworks. No bloated Electron wrappers — just ultra-responsive, hardware-accelerated performance on Apple Silicon. Seamlessly import PDF, TXT, MD, CSV, JSON, DOC, and DOCX files. Build a powerful local…from localpdf.io
