About Handl

Handl was founded by developers who wanted a private, secure, and fast alternative to cloud-based PDF tools. We believe that simple file operations shouldn't require you to upload your sensitive data to someone else's server.

Privacy First

We built Handl with a "Local-First" architecture. Your files are processed entirely within your web browser and never touch our servers.

Lightning Fast

By removing the need to upload and download large files, our tools work instantly. No waiting for server queues or slow internet connections.

Our Mission

The web is becoming more powerful every day. Modern browsers can now handle complex tasks that used to require desktop software or heavy cloud servers. Our mission is to harness this power to build tools that respect your privacy and save you time.

Whether you are merging legal documents, compressing large reports, or protecting sensitive contracts, Handl gives you the power to do it securely on your own device.
