What's inside

A working lawyer's PDF day, on one device

Review and redact, produce and stamp, read and compare — the operations you'd otherwise split across Acrobat plus a paid exhibit plugin, all local.

Redact & secure

  • Permanent redaction — text stripped from the PDF, not painted over
  • Paste-a-list bulk privilege redaction — 50 names, one pass
  • Pattern presets — SSN, email, phone, card, IP, IBAN, dates
  • OCR-aware on scanned pages + post-apply verification
  • Password-protect (AES) and remove protection
  • PDF/A archival for court filing (veraPDF-validated)

Bates & exhibits

  • Bates numbering — prefix presets, custom start, provenance sidecar
  • Exhibit stamping — single file or a whole batch at once
  • Separator-page mode for exhibit binders
  • Header / footer with {page}/{date} tokens
  • Watermark — text or image, opacity & position
  • Batch stamping in core — no paid plugin needed

Read, compare & edit

  • Viewer with search, outline, bookmarks, recent files
  • Compare — word redline + visual page diff, export to PDF
  • Edit text on the page; fill & sign (draw / type / upload)
  • OCR scanned PDFs into a searchable text layer
  • Merge, split, compress, reorder / rotate pages
  • Convert: image→PDF, Word→PDF, PDF→text, PDF→Word

Matter model

Organise PDFs into cases, not folders. Each matter keeps its own document tabs, scoped highlights and sticky notes, and a cross-document search — so the second document you need is one click away, never a re-upload.

Reading intelligence

Hover a defined term to see its definition, click a "see Section 4.2" reference to jump straight there, and surface where one document cites another — built for long contracts and the record, all computed on-device.

Why local-first

Your client's documents don't belong on someone else's server

Nothing uploads

Every redaction, stamp, and compare runs in your browser. Open your Network tab — you'll see zero traffic.

Works offline

Installs like an app and runs on planes, in court, and on locked-down firm networks. No internet needed after first load.

No account

No sign-up. No email capture. Just open the app and start working — and your data stays AES-256 encrypted at rest.

One-time $39

Not a subscription. Pay once — the version you installed is yours to use forever. Free tier covers 1000 operations a month.

How we compare

JDataSuite vs. Adobe Acrobat & Smallpdf

  JDataSuite Acrobat Pro Smallpdf
Files leave your device Never (verifiable) Phones home Always uploaded
Paste-a-list bulk redaction Yes — 50 at once One term at a time No
Permanent text redaction Yes + verify pass Yes Paint-over
Batch exhibit stamping Built-in Paid plugin No
Bates numbering · Compare · PDF/A Yes Yes No
Works fully offline Yes Partly No
Pricing $39 once ~$155/year ~$108/year
Batch / API / team · certificate signing No Yes Yes

We're honest about where we're weaker: no batch/scheduled processing, no REST API, no team licensing, and the signature is a visual e-signature — not a certificate-based digital signature. If you need those, Acrobat is still the right choice.

Honest limits

What this tool doesn't do

Common questions

Answers before you click Install

Is the redaction actually permanent?
Yes. The underlying text is stripped from the PDF object model — not painted over — and a verification pass confirms it's gone. You can also redact by pattern (SSN, email, phone…) or by pasting a list of names, and it's OCR-aware on scanned pages.
Do my files ever get uploaded?
No. Everything runs in your browser, on your device. Verify it yourself — open the Network tab while redacting a PDF; you'll see zero requests.
Can it do Bates numbering and batch exhibit stamps?
Yes — Bates with prefix presets and a provenance sidecar, and exhibit stamping for a single file or a whole batch at once, with a separator-page binder mode. Acrobat needs a paid plugin for batch exhibits.
Can I use one Pro licence on my laptop, desktop, and phone?
Yes — one licence covers all your own devices. It's not a per-seat licence, so two people need two licences.
