About Me

Hi, I'm Jignesh Sonewane, the creator of Crackle PDF. I started this project to make everyday PDF work faster, simpler, and more private.

Crackle PDF focuses on local-first document processing, so users can merge, split, compress, convert, and work with PDFs without uploading sensitive files to unknown servers.

I keep building the product as an independent developer, improving the browser extension, website, privacy pages, and upcoming app experience step by step.
