New PDF AI alternative

A PDF AI tool that doesn't upload your document.

Most PDF AI tools send your whole file to a server. PDFLove AI keeps it in your browser and sends only the text needed to answer — encrypted, cited to the page, and never used to train AI.

Why PDFLove AI

What sets it apart

The file never gets uploaded

Your PDF is stored locally in your browser. Only the extracted text needed to answer a question is sent to the AI — encrypted, and never used for training.

Grounded, cited answers

Every answer points back to the exact page it came from, so nothing is invented and everything is verifiable.

One question, many documents

Search a whole library of PDFs at once and get answers ranked and cited per source.

Tables and data extraction

Detect tables, figures, and form fields and export them as clean, structured data.

OCR for scanned files

Image-only and scanned PDFs are OCR'd automatically before you ask, across 90+ languages.

Free to start

Open a PDF and start asking. Free covers 3 PDFs a month; Pro is $16/mo for unlimited.
