Brand voice

  • Plainspoken over marketing-speak — we describe what a tool does, not how it feels.
  • Specific numbers over vague claims — we say '30+ browser-based PDF tools', not 'industry-leading'.
  • Honest about limits — we say what we are not, instead of overpromising.
  • Technical where it matters — we credit open-source libraries by name and explain architecture choices.

Site snapshot (Q3 2026, estimated)

PDF Tools runs as a static site on a global CDN. The site is built with Astro, deployed to Cloudflare Pages, and served entirely from edge cache.

All page generation happens at build time — there is no backend, no application server, and no upload endpoint. Visitor tracking uses Plausible Analytics (cookieless, GDPR-compliant).

Content is available in 6 languages: English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Spanish, French, German. Each language is independently translated and reviewed.
