Is unlocking PDFs free?

Yes. Create a free account to unlock PDFs. Free plans include a daily run limit; upgrade to Pro for more runs per day.

Can I unlock any PDF?

You need the correct password for the file. DocMatePDF does not bypass encryption on documents you do not own or cannot unlock legally.

No. Unlocking runs locally in your browser. We do not keep copies after you close the tab.

Remove password protection from PDFs you own — when you have the correct passphrase — so you can edit, merge, or share without restrictions.
