Sejda PDF Free Alternative: Break Free From Hourly Limits

Sejda PDF is undeniably one of the slickest tools on the market. But it has a notorious "productivity killer" hidden in its free tier:

"Free service documents up to 200 pages or 50 MB, and 3 tasks per hour."

Imagine needing to split 10 files for a project. You do the first three. Then... you wait. For 60 minutes.

Productivity doesn't wait for hourly timers. Oratiq is the Sejda PDF alternative that respects your time by removing arbitrary limits.

The Economics of Limits

Why does Sejda limit you? Because server time is money. Every time you upload a 50MB file, their AWS bill goes up. To stay profitable, they must throttle free users.

Oratiq flips the model. Because we run on your device, we have no server costs associated with your tasks.

• You pay for your own electricity (which is negligible).
• We pay $0 for processing.
• Result: You get UNLIMITED tasks for free.

Head-to-Head: The "Free" Tier

| Limitation | Sejda Desktop / Web Free | Oratiq Free | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Tasks Per Hour | 3 Tasks | Unlimited | | Max File Size | 50 MB | No Hard Limit (GBs) | | Max Pages | 200 Pages | Unlimited | | Batch Processing | Limited | Yes | | Privacy | Uploads Required | Private |

Real-World Use Cases

1. The Accountant

End of month means merging hundreds of receipts. Sejda would take days at "3 per hour." With Oratiq's PDF Merge, you can do 500 in one afternoon.

2. The Student

You have a 400-page scanned textbook (200MB). Sejda rejects it for being too large. Oratiq's PDF Splitter opens it instantly because it doesn't need to upload the massive file first.

Limitations?

Sejda excels at text editing (changing existing text). Currently, Oratiq focuses on File Manipulation (Merge, Split, Rotate, Protect). For these tasks, we are faster and less restrictive.

Conclusion

If you need to edit the text of a single sentence, Sejda is great. For everything else—organizing, securing, and combining files—Oratiq is the unlimited powerhouse you need.
