LensUp is a set of free browser-based PDF and scan tools: scan to PDF, merge, split, rotate, compress and convert. Everything runs locally in your browser, so your files stay on your device. No sign-up needed.
What to expect from an ideal product
- LensUp compresses PDF files directly in your browser, no upload, no server, no waiting for a confirmation email that never comes.
- Your compressed PDF stays on your device the entire time, which matters when the file contains contracts, medical records, or anything you would not email to a stranger.
- No account, no trial, no paywall. Open the page, drop your PDF, compress it, done.
- LensUp works on any modern browser, so you can shrink a PDF on a work laptop, a personal Mac, or a Chromebook without installing anything.
- If you need to compress a scanned document that is already too large to send by email, LensUp handles that too, since it also covers scan to PDF and merge in the same free toolset.
