About Valido
Built by Someone Who Hated Manual PDF Work
Valido was born from frustration. After spending countless hours manually checking invoices, extracting data, and validating PDF documents, I realized there had to be a better way.
Most PDF tools force you to upload sensitive documents to their cloud servers. That's a problem for anyone handling confidential information—whether you're processing payslips, invoices, contracts, or compliance reports. So I built Valido to run 100% locally on your machine—your documents never leave your computer.
What makes Valido different:
• No per-document pricing (process unlimited PDFs)
• No cloud upload required (100% private)
• Built-in calculations (not just extraction)
• Works offline (no internet needed after setup)
Still early days, but Valido already has a 5-star rating on Softpedia and is helping professionals save hours every week. Your feedback drives development—reach out anytime at info@valido.site
Try It Risk-Free
7-day trial • No credit card • All features unlocked
Unlike cloud-based tools, Valido processes everything locally on your computer.
No uploads, no external servers, no data breaches. Perfect for regulated industries like healthcare, legal, and finance.
