Where MyPDF stands out

  • Merge, split, sign, redact, OCR, and turn invoices or bank statements into Excel without uploading the file.
  • A $5 day pass for one busy day. It ends after 24 hours, so there is nothing to cancel.
  • Pro is $69 a year with 200 MB files, 100 jobs a day, the API, and webhooks.
  • No watermarks on any plan, and your documents are never used to train models.
  • Permanent redaction that removes the covered text and images from the file.

When Smallpdf may suit you better

  • Lower yearly price per seat for teams ($84 vs $99) and a 2-seat minimum.
  • A mobile app with document scanning.
  • A full e-signature product with templates, a certificate of completion, and unlimited signees.
  • ISO/IEC 27001 certification and cloud storage for your files.
