QRix
iLovePDF is the best-known PDF suite on the web, and it earned that. QRix takes a different angle: the same everyday PDF jobs plus 160+ non-PDF tools, with no signup and no file-size ceiling — because most of them finish in your browser. Here is the breakdown, with iLovePDF's column read from its own pricing page.
iLovePDF's pricing page states its free limit as file size per task, not a daily task count, and lists Premium at 4–7 US$/month depending on billing period (read 2026-08-01).

iLovePDF is a mature, polished PDF suite with desktop and mobile apps, and its free tier is more generous than the version of it this page used to describe — its own pricing table caps file size per task, not the number of tasks. Where QRix differs is scope and ceiling: the same everyday conversions with no size cap, because most of them run in your browser, plus QR, barcode, image, AI and downloader tools in the same tab. If you work in PDFs all day and want native apps, iLovePDF earns its price.

We compared its DOCX output side-by-side against iLovePDF's on real documents while building it — both files dissected and rendered through Word — and closed the gaps that comparison exposed. That was our own testing, not an independent benchmark.
No. Fair-use rate limits prevent abuse, but there is no daily task counter and no file-size cap.
Its pricing page states file size per task: 100 MB for Merge and Split, 200 MB for Compress, against 4 GB on Premium. Its own Batch processing row reads Unlimited for free and paid alike, and it states no daily task cap. Read 2026-08-01 — check the page itself before relying on it.
