Roadmap
Built in the open.
46 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 →

46 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 every tool
Every Filum tool — organize, edit, and convert alike — runs entirely in your browser. Your file never reaches a server: nothing is uploaded, nothing is stored. The server tier that once handled Office conversions was retired so the zero-upload promise holds for the whole toolkit.

31 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

On-device Office conversion (WASM)
Bring the Office pairs (Word, Excel, PowerPoint ↔ PDF) back — but running entirely in your browser via a WebAssembly build of LibreOffice, so they keep the zero-upload promise the rest of the toolkit already makes. Listed only once it passes real-document verification.
- 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.
