About SimplePDF
Our founder, Benjamin André-Micolon, is a Senior Software Engineer with over a decade of experience—and a strong dislike for unnecessary paperwork. Tired of clunky, overpriced tools and worried about where his files were going, he decided to build something better.
“I built SimplePDF to fight bureaucracy,” Ben says. “Everyone deserves simple tools that just work—without selling your data or locking you into a bloated subscription.”
What started as a passion project is now a powerful PDF platform used by professionals, teams, and businesses around the world. Today, Ben works alongside his wife to grow SimplePDF into the most honest, affordable, and privacy-first alternative in the space.
