Free compression with no daily surprise limits

PrivaPDF's compressor is free with no daily limit, with the full quality-control slider rather than a stripped-down version. There's no forced watermark and no waiting in an upload queue — compression happens the moment you drop the file, since it's running on your device rather than a shared server.

Compress as many PDFs as you need, one-off or in bulk.

Common questions

Is it really free?

Yes. Every tool is free with no daily limit. No account or credit card required.

Is my file uploaded to a server?

No. All processing happens entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. Your file never leaves your device.

How much can I compress my PDF?

Image-heavy PDFs can often shrink 40–80%. Text-only PDFs typically compress 10–20%. Use the quality slider to find the right balance.

Does this work offline?

Yes. Once the page is loaded, you can disconnect from the internet and the tool will still work perfectly.
