05Questions

Asked before the first download.

Is it really free?
Yes. The Free plan has no time limit and needs no card or account to view.
Is it safe for personal documents?
Redpen opens and saves files on your computer. Nothing is uploaded, and no AI feature reads your documents.
Do I need a paid plan?
Most people at home do not. Office is there if you need to search a scanned document, redact something before you share it or sign with a digital ID.
