Score: 6.7/10 (Innovation: 6, Technical: 7, Documentation: 7, Utility: 7)

PrivaPDF is a privacy-focused PDF converter that processes files entirely in the browser using WebAssembly, ensuring documents never leave the user's device. It supports a wide range of PDF operations like conversion, merging, and OCR, and works offline as a Progressive Web App. This approach addresses a clear privacy gap compared to cloud-based tools.

Target audience: backend devs, frontend devs, data engineers, general users with privacy needs
