Roadmap
Built in the open.
28 tools shipped. Each one verified on real documents before it appeared here. This page shows what shipped, what is being built next, and what is coming further out.
Items in the planned column are confirmed intentions, not promises. The order reflects current priority. A tool only ships when it passes the full quality bar — not before. Detailed changelog →

28 tools — all verified on real documents
Split, merge, rotate, sign, organize, watermark, crop, page numbers, compress, redact, fill forms, protect, unlock, repair, OCR, PDF to Markdown, PDF to Excel, PDF to PDF/A, and more — plus format conversion (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, HTML, and web pages).

On-device processing for all edit tools
Every tool that organizes or edits a PDF runs entirely in your browser. The file never reaches a server. Format conversion (PDF to Word, PDF to PowerPoint, etc.) uses a secure server that deletes the file within 60 minutes.

35 guides explaining how PDF tools actually work
Plain-language guides covering every major PDF operation — what works, what does not, and why. Each guide is tied to the tool it describes.

Measured, data-backed comparison

REST API for server-side tools
A documented API for the format-conversion tools (PDF to Word, Excel to PDF, etc.) — for developers who want to integrate Filum's conversion quality into their own workflows.
- Up next
Batch conversion
Convert multiple files at once with a single action. Currently each file is processed individually; batch mode will queue and convert them in parallel.

Password-aware unlock for all format tools
Currently, encrypted PDFs block format conversion (PDF to Word, etc.). A password entry step before conversion would pass the decrypted buffer to LibreOffice.
