LeedPDF
Tool
Why we built this
Annotating PDFs felt harder than it should. Tools were bloated, expensive, or required cloud uploads for your sensitive documents.
What if annotating felt like jotting in the margins of a notebook—quick, calm, and private?
We built a lightweight, ADHD-friendly editor with natural annotation tools. No account needed, works offline, open source under AGPL.
"Your brain deserves tools that just work. LeedPDF is free, private, and designed to help you think clearer."
