This appears to be an online PDF editing tool. While I am looking for an alternative to my now aging Adobe Acrobat, a stand alone application, an online or cloud based PDF editing solution is not the answer for me. The things I work on are private as in working on legal documents, working on a book I have not yet published, etc. I would guess that this app is free in the same way that gmail is free. That is not entirely fair to say as gmail is free because Google uses all the personal information in my emails to target their advertising. But it would be the same idea of this software is free because they are in a shared agreement with Chat or some other entity to train their AI engine using my PDF documents - which I want to remain private.

This app does so many things well. It can convert a .PDF to .PPTX, .XLSX, or .DOCX. The interface may not be the best but it is hgihly useful. It even does OCR. Thanks to the Dev for this!

Maybe not so user-friendly as others but it does the job. No subscription needed, it's free and it's regularly updated. Perfect for me
