Press & brand resources
Getting ghosted has never felt this good.
One-liners, brand assets, key facts, and a contact for journalists, podcasters, and reviewers covering the GhostX family — GhostSign, GhostPDF, GhostQR, GhostSheet, and GhostSend.
The one-liner
GhostX builds free, browser-only privacy-first tools — including GhostSign (e-signature), GhostPDF (20 PDF tools), GhostQR (QR generator), GhostSheet (Excel viewer), and GhostSend (one-time encrypted sends — text or file). Everything runs in your browser. No signup, no upload — your files never leave your device.
Why we exist
Every free PDF / signing / secret-sharing tool wants your file, your email, and eventually your credit card. The "free" tier is a funnel, the watermark is a tax, and your document spends some time on a stranger's server. We thought the basic things people do with files every day — sign one, compress one, share a password — should just work, in the browser, without any of that. So we built GhostX that way.
Single-signer signing, every GhostPDF tool, every GhostQR payload, and every GhostSheet open run 100% client-side. There's no upload endpoint — open DevTools and watch the Network tab; your file is never in any request. Multi-party signing and GhostSend are end-to-end encrypted with an AES-GCM key that lives only in the magic-link URL fragment; we hold ciphertext blobs only, never the plaintext.

Pull quotes
- "Most free tools want your file, your email, and your credit card. We just want you to get the job done and close the tab."
- "GhostX tools don't have an upload endpoint for the solo flows. Open DevTools and watch the Network tab — your file is never in any request."
- "Free isn't a freemium funnel. It's the whole product."
- "The note disappears. The QR code never gets a tracking pixel. The PDF never leaves your laptop. That's the point."
