History
pdfFiller was founded in 2008 by Vadim Yasinovsky as a web application for filling out and sending PDF forms online. The service initially focused on basic form filling capabilities but has since expanded into a comprehensive document management platform.[3] Over the years, the product portfolio grew to include electronic signature functionality, form building and publishing, optical character recognition, and integrations with third-party services.[4] pdfFiller is a part of the airSlate ecosystem, which also includes altaFlow, airSlate SignNow, US Legal Forms, DocHub, and Instapage. Since its launch, pdfFiller has served over 64 million users worldwide and supports more than 120,000 businesses globally in their transition to paperless workflows.[5]
Products features
pdfFiller positions itself as a comprehensive platform that enables individuals and businesses to create, prepare, sign, and reuse documents from any device. With built-in AI-powered document creation, it is tailored for real-world scenarios, allowing small and medium-sized businesses to go completely digital by replacing fragmented tools with a single, intuitive interface.[6][7][8] Whether it's a specific template—from invoices to lease agreements—or advanced tools like electronic signature requests and reusable templates, pdfFiller provides diverse features to fit the needs of SMBs.[9][10] In 2025, pdfFiller launched several AI-powered features to enhance document workflows.[11][12]
Create document with AI
The AI-powered document creation tool generates professional documents from simple text prompts, eliminating the need for templates or starting from blank pages. Users can create contracts, policies, proposals, reports, and other business documents by describing their requirements in natural language.[13] The tool is powered by ChatGPT technology and automatically applies professional formatting, section structure, and industry-standard language.[14]
Summarize and translate
The AI-dowered document summarization and translation tool analyzes document structure and content to generate concise summaries in seconds. The feature helps professionals, students, and researchers reduce reading time by extracting key information from lengthy contracts, reports, textbooks, and case files.[15][16][17]
AI Assistant
The conversational AI assistant allows users to interact with documents through natural language queries. Users can ask questions, extract insights, and navigate content by chatting with their PDFs. The feature provides context-aware responses with source citations and supports multi-turn conversations for deeper clarification.[18]
pdfFiller also provides access to an extensive library of over 2 million pre-configured business forms and templates across various industries and use cases.[19]
Document editing and preparation
pdfFiller offers an advanced PDF editor that allows users to modify text, dates, prices, and other content directly within PDF files. Users can add images, comments, custom stamps, and annotations for collaboration. Document management features include the ability to merge multiple files, rearrange pages, split documents, and compare versions to verify changes.[20][21]
Electronic signatures
pdfFiller provides legally valid, certificate-based electronic signatures for business and legal transactions. The LinkToFill feature transforms documents into public web links for collecting signatures and data. Users can customize signing experiences with branded elements and personalized signature stamps. All signed documents are backed by verified audit trails and digital certificates.[22][23]
Security and compliance
The platform meets enterprise-grade security and compliance standards including GDPR, HIPAA, SOC 2 Type II, PCI DSS, CCPA, and FERPA. All documents are encrypted with 256-bit encryption and stored in a centralized, secure vault accessible from any device.[24][25]
pdfFiller is offered as a subscription-based Software as a Service accessible through web browsers and mobile applications for Android and iOS devices.
