True redaction removes the text and images from the file — not a black box on top. Plus real in-place text editing, fill + sign, reorder pages, and OCR.
LaunchEdit text in place, sign, redact, fill forms, and reorganize PDF files in your browser — all on your device. No upload, no subscription.
Drop two versions of a contract or drawing set. Moved notes read as moves, changed values light up digit by digit, and hidden text is named.
LaunchSide-by-side or overlay PDF diff driven by one engine that reads each file into a structured model — text, vector geometry, images, form fields, annotations — and compares the models. Moves show as moves, edits show only where they happened, and any PDF type works without picking a mode.
Drop a Gerber ZIP, an ODB++ .tgz or an IPC-2581 .xml and inspect every layer — compare revisions, snap-to-pad measure, run DRC and preview the board in 3D.
LaunchOpen Gerber, Excellon, ODB++ and IPC-2581 PCB files. Inspect layers, measure traces, run DRC, export to PNG / SVG / DXF.
Open a .step / .stp part and it measures itself: volume, thinnest wall, draft and undercuts on load, and a hole list with a BOM in one click. Measure, section, export STL.
LaunchOpen a STEP / STP part and it measures itself — volume, thinnest wall, draft and undercut checks on load, plus hole detection with a BOM. Measure, section, export STL. Rust + WASM B-rep kernel, runs in your browser.
Compress, merge, split, convert, and manipulate PDF files.
Resize, compress, convert, and transform images.
Convert, compress, and cut audio and video — MP3, WAV, MP4, WebM, Opus — all in your browser, nothing uploads.
Simulate a canning process down to its F0 sterilizing value.
Encrypt files, share encrypted notes as links, and inspect tokens, IDs, and Windows event logs.
Analyze packet captures, move files between devices, and console into network gear — nothing uploads.
Scan receipts into an expense ledger — your receipts and spending stay on your device.
View, measure, and repair CAD and 3D files — STEP, STL, OBJ, PLY, GLB, 3MF, DXF, and Gerber — right in your browser. Nothing uploads.

Launch Gerber Viewer
Drop the manufacturing files your design tool exported: a .zip of Gerber and drill files from KiCad, Altium, EAGLE or EasyEDA, or an ODB++ or IPC-2581 package. The board appears layer by layer, top and bottom, and you can measure it. Native design files such as .kicad_pcb or .PcbDoc need their own program; export Gerbers from them first.
RS-274X (extended Gerber) and Gerber X2 attributes. Excellon and XNC drill files are auto-detected. Older RS-274D (no embedded apertures) is not supported.
.zip, .tar, .tar.gz, and .tgz. Loose .gbr / .drl / .gtl / .gbl files are also accepted.
Yes, both. Drop an IPC-2581 .xml or an ODB++ .tgz and you get copper, drill, soldermask, silkscreen and the board outline on the same canvas as Gerber, with layer names, measurements and DRC read straight from the file. IPC-2581 also carries its net names into the netlist panel. ODB++ nets live outside the feature records and are not read yet.
Yes, from ODB++ and from a Gerber job file. An ODB++ job is read for coverlay, stiffener and the bend, flex and rigid regions, which are drawn as a tinted overlay so you can see which part of the board bends. The board reports itself as flex or rigid-flex from its own layer table. Pad shapes the job defines for itself are read too, so nothing is silently dropped. Material thicknesses are not read: ODB++ has no standard place for them, so the stackup table and bend-radius figure still need a Gerber job file.
Every file is read at its own coordinate resolution and converted to millimetres once, so an inch board and a millimetre board measure the same. The mm / in toggle changes what you read, never what is measured — dimensions, measurements and DRC verdicts are identical either way. Pad-center snap is geometric (centroid of the aperture flash).
