What is Orifold?

Now live on the web: The Orifold website is here. Fold chaos into one clean PDF — explore the app on the web.

Orifold is a PDF workspace, not a single-file editor. A “simple PDF task” is rarely one file — it’s six PDFs, two screenshots, a Word document, and a scanned form. Orifold’s job is to take all of that in, let you organize and finish it in one place, and hand back one polished file.

Everything happens on your Mac. There’s no upload step, no account, and no server in the loop — import, editing, OCR, compression, encryption, and export all run locally.

Orifold product flow: import mixed files, edit and finish them in one local workspace, then export one clean file — everything runs on your Mac
  1. Import — drop in PDFs, Word docs, images, scans, Markdown, HTML, CSV, even corrupt files.
  2. Work the workspace — reorder and rotate pages, edit text, annotate, fill forms, sign, stamp, OCR.
  3. Export — one clean PDF (or DOCX, Markdown, HTML, images) leaves your Mac exactly once, when you say so.

Anyone doing PDF paperwork on a Mac who doesn’t want a subscription, an upload, or a small ceremony to get a document finished — students, freelancers, small businesses, and anyone tired of final_final_revised_ACTUAL.pdf.
