Support Development
PdfReducta is free to use. If it saves you time or makes your life easier, consider buying me a coffee. Every donation helps keep development going!
Buy Me a CoffeeWhy is PdfReducta free?
I built PdfReducta because I needed a simple, reliable PDF compressor for my own work. I was frustrated with web-based tools that uploaded my files to unknown servers, bloated apps with subscriptions, and complicated interfaces.
So I made something different: a native Mac app that does one thing really well, respects your privacy, and doesn't try to extract money from you at every turn.
My philosophy: Good software should be accessible to everyone. If you're a student, freelancer, or anyone who needs to compress PDFs occasionally, you shouldn't have to pay a monthly subscription.
That's why PdfReducta is free. No trials, no feature limitations, no annoying upgrade prompts.
How your support helps
Your donations directly support:
- Active Development — New features, bug fixes, and performance improvements
- macOS Updates — Ensuring compatibility with every new macOS release
- User Support — Responding to bug reports and feature requests
- Hosting — Website, update servers, and download infrastructure
- Testing — Devices and tools to test across different Macs and macOS versions
- Motivation — Knowing people find value in my work keeps me motivated to improve it
Every contribution, no matter how small, makes a difference. Even a single coffee ($3-5) helps cover hosting costs and shows me that people appreciate the work I've put into this.
