PDFs are not going away—contracts, coursework, invoices, and scans still land in our inboxes every day. What is changing is that fewer people want to install heavy desktop software just to fix a typo, merge two files, or shrink an attachment.

pdfpilot (https://pdfpilot.pro) meets that shift head-on: a browser-based PDF toolkit plus a real editor—edit text, annotate, highlight, and sign—without a separate install, with a modern UI (including dark mode) built for speed and clarity.

What users love most

  • True in-browser editing — not only “convert and download”; you can work on the document in the flow people already use.
  • One place for many jobs — merge, split, organize pages, compress, convert to/from images, encrypt, watermark, OCR, and more—one brand, one hub instead of juggling five random sites.
  • Trust-oriented flows — server-backed processing where it matters (e.g. encryption), optional sign-in and Saved PDFs for people who want their sessions organized.
  • India-ready — tools like GST invoice PDF speak directly to accountants and SMBs.
  • Honest freemium — real value on the free tier; pdfpilot Pro (e.g. unlimited server-backed downloads for signed-in users—align exact limits with your live Terms before publishing numbers).

We’ve been expanding pdfpilot 1 from “merge / split / compress” into a fuller all-in-one grid of PDF tools. Core use is free (editing, converting, and most flows); we only ask you to sign in for downloads in some places, and there’s an optional Pro if you want unlimited daily downloads — not paywalled “watermarks on every export.”

Some of the newer / expanded stuff:

  • Repair PDF — recover many damaged PDFs (runs through qpdf on your API when configured).
  • Translate PDF — extract text in the browser, translate with an on-device model, download a simple text PDF (privacy-friendly angle).
  • Redact PDF — black out rectangular regions in the browser (we label it clearly: not legal-grade redaction).
  • Compare PDF — line-by-line text diff between two PDFs (works best when text is selectable; OCR scans first if needed).
  • More conversions — PowerPoint / Excel / HTML → PDF and PDF → PowerPoint / Excel (where LibreOffice / your document-flow API is set up), plus PDF → PDF/A for archival workflows.
  • Rotate / crop pages, remove / extract pages, add page numbers & watermarks, e-sign, GST invoice PDF, PDF ↔ Word drafts in the browser where we keep files local, etc.

Privacy angle we care about: a lot of this is in-browser (merge, split, organize, many exports, sign/fill/flatten, etc.). Anything that needs a server (OCR, some repairs, some Office conversions) is called out in the UI so you’re not guessing.

If you try it, what would make you actually switch from your current PDF site? (speed, accuracy, fewer ads, specific tool?) Genuinely useful feedback for us.

Hey r/vibecoders ,

I got tired of manually comparing my OpenAPI spec to my Postman collection

to figure out which endpoints had no tests. So I built TestLens.

You upload two files:

  1. Your OpenAPI / Swagger spec (JSON or YAML)
  2. Your test collection (Postman, Insomnia, Bruno, or a HAR file)

It tells you:

✅ Which APIs are covered

❌ Which APIs are completely untested

⚠️ Which collection requests don't exist in the spec at all

📊 Your overall coverage % with a visual progress bar

Everything runs in your browser. Your files never leave your machine.

No account. No install. No backend.

Recently added:

- Auto-detects Postman v1/v2, Insomnia, Bruno, HAR formats

- YAML OpenAPI support

- Coverage trend vs your last run (↑ or ↓)

- Untested folder highlights

- Shareable link (encode results in URL hash)

- JSON/CSV/PDF export

- Slack/Teams webhook notifications

- Light/Dark mode

Would genuinely love feedback from people who deal with API coverage

in their day job. What's missing? What would make this actually

useful in your workflow?
