Hyper Notepad vs PDF Candy

Hyper Notepad is a browser-based productivity notepad for writing, saving, and sharing notes without installing software. You open the page, start typing, and get a unique link to share the note with anyone. Notes are encrypted at rest, autosave as you type, and work on desktop or mobile browsers.

Unlike Google Docs or Notion, Hyper Notepad stays intentionally lightweight. There are no workspaces, databases, or collaboration threads. You trade team features for zero-friction sharing, optional password locks, and auto-expiring notes that delete themselves after a set time.

It suits students, freelancers, and teams who need a quick scratchpad or a shareable doc without accounts. Writers who want rich text, code blocks, and optional Premium extras like tables, image embeds, and custom themes can upgrade when the free tier is not enough.

PDF Candy packs 90+ browser-based PDF tools into one productivity hub for editing, converting, merging, compressing, signing, and protecting documents. Newer additions include AI summarize, chat, and translate workflows alongside classics like PDF to Word and JPG to PDF.

Competing PDF sites usually split free limits across separate pages. PDF Candy keeps a forever-free web tier with no ads and no account required, then sells priority processing, 500 MB uploads, and an offline Windows desktop app with 35 tools. Paid bundles also include Video Candy and Image Candy web access.

Office workers, students, and small businesses reach for PDF Candy when they need a quick conversion without installing software, or when they want batch-friendly desktop processing. Files upload from Dropbox or Google Drive, and the site deletes uploads within two hours under GDPR rules.
