The catalogues of the 7 big players, verified live. We win by a landslide on breadth and on features nobody else has — and because we committed to not lying, we also say what we leave out and why. That's the difference.
Let's start with what isn't up for debate
AIM PAPYR: 175 free tools in one place. The next most complete (Stirling) has 60+; the rest, between 24 and ~40. It's not marketing — it's counting the catalogues.
And this you'll only find here
Features none of the six offer — verified on July 6, 2026:
Real Spanish invoicing: validate and create Facturae 3.2.2, scan an invoice to Excel, check NIF, consolidate N invoices into one table. None of the big players has it.
Honest applied AI: the agent proposes a plan and you approve it; chat across several PDFs at once with document and page citations; voice to .docx minutes; BibTeX/RIS bibliography; printable study quiz.
Active privacy: PDF X-ray, safety check, one-click anonymise, EXIF report, and sealing with public QR verification.
Contract analysis that downloads the deadlines into an .ics calendar with an alarm.
And the model: free, no ads, no sign-up, PII encrypted before any AI, deleted when done, and all in the EU.
Tool by tool
Catalogues verified on July 6, 2026. “Has it” means the feature exists; where we haven't measured quality head-to-head, we don't claim it.

What we leave out on purpose
Because we don't lie, here's what we don't do — and why it's a decision, not an oversight:
By design — the privacy is the point
No apps to install and no cloud storage: it works in any browser and we store nothing. Your files not staying anywhere is exactly the goal, not a gap. If you need native offline apps, the big players have them.
No account and no sync: nothing to sign up for, nothing left behind. You just start and work.
On the roadmap
Multi-signer e-sign with order and tracking (today: send to one signer by email, sealed with a QR).
Shapes, freehand and links in the editor, and publishing a form as a fillable link.
A self-service public API to plug PAPYR into your workflows.
