PdfCompare

100% private, client-side PDF comparison & document suite

PdfCompare launched on September 5, 2026.

What it does

PdfCompare is an ultra-fast, 100% private PDF comparison & document utility suite that runs entirely in your browser memory via WebAssembly. Unlike traditional tools that upload sensitive NDAs, contracts, or tax data to remote cloud servers Key highlights: • Semantic word redline diff (find edited clauses & numbers) • Visual pixel canvas diff & curtain slider (spot moved stamps & logos) • Client-side IRS Form W-8BEN & W-9 filler • Text-to-PDF converter

Compare two PDF files side-by-side without uploading them. Spot every text revision, clause change, and layout shift with 100% private in-browser WebAssembly.

Find every text revision, clause insertion, altered image, and relocated stamp side-by-side. Your files never leave your device. Explore specialized differential workflows engineered for precision auditing and zero-risk compliance. Attorneys and corporate legal teams must review lengthy non-disclosure agreements, master services agreements, and vendor contracts. Manual line-by-line proofreading is dangerous because subtle additions—such as modifying confidentiality terms from 3 to 5 years or inflating liability caps—can easily be overlooked. Our PDF compare engine eliminates formatting noise and highlights exact textual revisions with legal-grade accuracy. Accountants, CFOs, and auditors…from pdfcompare.app

    Hi HN, I have been working on a set of PDF tools that does all the processing directly in the web browser. From time to time I needed to do some simple PDF manipulations like merging PDF files. Sometimes the files contain my personal data and I was not comfortable using other online services where the file usually is uploaded to a remote server. Behind the scenes there is a small library written in C++ doing the changes to the PDF files. I am using the Emscripten compiler to compile it to WebAssembly that is running in the browser. It was a very good learning for me and it was easier than I…

    I created this tool to make it quick and easy to sign PDF contracts, without having to deal with installing additional software and without worrying that my PDFs will get uploaded to a third party. It supports the bare minimum for my most common usecases. It is not intended to be a full-featured PDF editor. Features include filling PDF forms, inserting images and text, and rotating PDFs. Check it out by either picking a PDF of your own - https://photown.github.io/private-pdf/, or with a preloaded sample PDF -…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
