What is Stirling PDF?

Stirling PDF is open-source software in the Files & Sync category: 50+ PDF tools: merge, split, OCR, compress. It typically replaces Adobe Acrobat — with the difference that your data stays on infrastructure you control, not in a US cloud.

You can self-host Stirling PDF on your own server — that means renting a VPS and handling Docker, a reverse proxy, TLS certificates, updates and a backup strategy yourself. Managed Stirling PDF hosting gives you the exact same app with that work done for you: we run it, patch the stack and keep daily encrypted backups, while you keep full data ownership and can export and leave anytime.

Facts

How it works

1. Create your account — 30 seconds, no server, nothing to install.
2. Hit launch: we build the isolated environment, issue the TLS certificate and attach the backup stream.
3. Stirling PDF is online at your own subdomain. You keep the keys — credentials are shown once and stored encrypted.
