What counts as a tracked document?

Every PDF you actively track counts as one document. Archived documents don't count toward your quota, so you can keep your slots for what's live and roll old ones into history without penalty.

Are e-signatures included?

Yes, on every plan. Each signature request counts once, no matter how many people sign it, and your monthly allowance grows with your plan. No per-envelope fees, no per-seat pricing.

What happens when I hit my plan's limit?

Nothing scary. We never silently meter you into a higher bill. If you've maxed your tracked-document slots, archive an old one or move up a tier when you're ready. Limits are hard caps, never surprise charges. And one thing's never metered — visits, sessions, and re-opens. The deal-closing reader who finally opens your proposal at 11 PM on day 17 is captured the same as the first one.

Can I try Pro before I commit?

Yes — 14 days of Pro, no card required. Full API, full event stream, full PDF operations. If it doesn't earn its keep, drop back to Hobby or cancel and walk away.

Can my whole team use one workspace?

Yes. Workspace members are unlimited on every tier, including Hobby. We charge for what you track, never per seat. Invite engineering, sales, ops, and stakeholders together — same bill.

All data is encrypted in transit and at rest, hosted exclusively in the EU, backed up daily, and handled GDPR-compliantly. You can export everything via the REST API at any time, and revoke any tokenized link instantly.

Can AI agents use Apdf directly?

Yes. Pro and Business ship an MCP server that plugs straight into Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, or any MCP client. Agents get the full API: create documents, mint links, read events, run PDF operations, wire automations.

Can I change or cancel my plan anytime?

Anytime. Upgrade, downgrade, or cancel straight from the dashboard — no email-the-sales-team dance. Billing prorates and your data stays exportable for as long as you have an account.
