Files never leave your device
Clean a PDF before sending it out. This removes the standard document information — title, author, subject, keywords, and the producer/creator strings — and drops the embedded XMP metadata packet, so the file you share doesn't carry names, tools, or notes you didn't mean to include.
Everything runs locally in your browser, so the document never leaves your device while it's cleaned.

Frequently asked questions
What exactly gets removed?
The standard info dictionary (title, author, subject, keywords, creator, producer) and the XMP metadata stream. Page content is untouched.
Does it remove everything hidden?
It clears the common metadata surfaces. It does not scrub content embedded inside the page graphics (e.g. text under an image) — use Redact for visible-content removal.
Is my PDF uploaded to sanitize it?
No. Your file is processed entirely in your browser using JavaScript — it is never uploaded to a server, so nothing can be stored, leaked, or read by anyone else.
