What SimplePDF is
SimplePDF is a browser-based service for editing, filling, signing and managing PDF documents. Its tools add text, checkboxes and images, detect form fields automatically, and let users sign documents. Page controls support merging PDFs, reordering, rotating and deleting pages, as well as adding blank pages or additional PDFs. The maker says editing happens in the browser and documents do not leave the user’s device. Businesses can embed PDFs on websites, collect submissions and automate workflows.

It supports S3-compatible storage, webhooks and email alerts for completed submissions. The free plan has no monthly quota for documents and submissions. Basic costs $99 a month for up to 2,500 combined monthly documents and submissions; Pro is $349 a month for up to 20,000; Premium is $899 a month for up to 75,000. A seven-day trial is available.
