The DocFly Story

DocFly was founded by Emily Shaw, a software developer from the UK. While working as a full-time employee in a tech company, she noticed there wasn’t a central place to perform PDF tasks; not a single decent online PDF editor existed. That’s when the "lightbulb" moment hit: there was a serious gap in the market for a great PDF SaaS application. DocFly was developed to help professionals, creatives, and teachers and students get their PDF work done online, at no cost. Offering 25 free tools, DocFly makes it easy to edit PDF text, merge PDF files, convert PDF to Word and more.

As a software developer, Emily decided to build the web application herself, but couldn’t afford to quit her day job. Spending every evening and weekend developing the website, Emily built a competitive product from the ground up. With little experience in marketing, growing traffic to the site proved difficult. Like many startups, she nearly threw in the towel. After implementing a solid strategy (and exercising a lot of patience), DocFly was recognized as a quality PDF editor and the website gained millions of users.

The demand for a quality PDF editor grew so rapidly that Emily was able to quit her 9-5 to work full-time on DocFly, as well as bring on additional team members. Today, DocFly serves hundreds of thousands of users and subscribers each month. Our tools are particularly popular with small and medium-sized businesses who have day-to-day PDF editing needs. We continue to add new features and hope DocFly helps you improve your productivity and work quality.

DocFly includes everything you need to create, edit and convert PDF files with no extra software to download. (And did we mention that it's free to use?)

DocFly allows you to work with almost any type of file format - including jpg, png, tiff, Word document, Excel and PowerPoint - to create a polished, easy-to-share PDF file.
