Features
A metadata tool built to be complete, not to be a demo.
Full coverage of both places a PDF stores metadata, a proper removal flow, a review step before you download, and no account standing between you and any of it.
- Free
- No sign-up
- Nothing uploaded
Everything included
Nine things this editor does well.
No feature here is gated, metered, or reserved for a paid plan.
See every field, not just a few
The full document Info dictionary — title, author, subject, keywords, creator, producer, both dates and the Trapped flag — plus page count, file size, PDF version and encryption status.
One-click metadata removal
Strip the entire Info dictionary and the XMP packet in a single action. Ideal before sharing a document publicly, filing it, or sending it to a client.
Custom properties
Add, rename, or delete your own key/value pairs — Department, CaseNumber, Version, anything your workflow needs. Existing custom keys are detected automatically.
Review changes before saving
A live change list shows exactly which fields you altered and their old → new values, so you never download a file you didn't mean to modify.
Export & reuse metadata
Download any PDF's metadata as JSON for records or auditing, then import that JSON to apply the same values to another document.
Instant — no engine to load
No multi-megabyte WebAssembly runtime to wait on. The page is interactive immediately and the PDF library loads only once you pick a file.
Private by architecture
Not a policy promise — a structural fact. The site is static files and browser JavaScript, with no upload endpoint that could receive your document in the first place.
Your original is never touched
Every action produces a new copy for download. The file you dropped in stays byte-for-byte identical on disk, so there is nothing to undo if you change your mind.
Light and dark, no account
A considered interface in both themes, with no sign-up, no email capture, no watermarks, no daily quota, and no upsell.
What sets it apart
Where other metadata tools stop short.
- Reads both metadata stores
- The Info dictionary and the XMP packet. Tools that only handle the first leave a second copy of your name in the file.
- A removal flow, not just an editor
- Clearing metadata for privacy is a different job from correcting a title. It gets its own one-click action and its own confirmation step.
- No engine to boot
- The page is usable the moment it loads. The PDF library is fetched only when you actually choose a file.
- A change list before you save
- Every pending edit is shown as old → new, so a stray keystroke can't silently end up in your download.
- Nothing to sign up for
- No account, no email, no watermark, no page limit, no daily quota, no paid tier holding a feature hostage.
- Provable privacy, not promised privacy
- There is no upload endpoint to trust. Open DevTools or disconnect your network and confirm it in ten seconds.
Honest limits
What it deliberately doesn't do.
A feature list that only lists strengths isn't much use when you're deciding whether a tool fits your task.
- Encrypted PDFs
- Password-protected files can be inspected in many cases, but a file with encrypted content may refuse to re-save. Remove the password first, then edit the metadata.
- One file at a time
- There is no batch queue. You can, however, export one file's metadata as JSON and import it into the next — which covers most repetitive work.
- Metadata only
- This tool does not merge, split, compress, sign, or OCR documents, and it does not edit the visible page content. It does one job thoroughly.
- Writing XMP field-by-field
- XMP packets are shown in full and removed completely, but individual XMP properties aren't editable one at a time. Standard fields cover what most people need to change.

The editor runs in this tab, needs no account, and never uploads your file.
