No signup. Files processed in your browser — nothing uploaded.

Many email clients, HR platforms, and submission portals cap file uploads at 5MB. fileGOD compresses your PDF to 5MB or below by optimizing embedded images and removing unnecessary data. Processing is entirely client-side — your file never touches a server.

No Upload Required

Everything happens in your browser. Your file stays on your device.

Batch Processing

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I compress a PDF to under 5MB?+
Open fileGOD, drop your PDF, select 5MB as the target, and download. The tool handles image optimization and metadata stripping automatically.
Will my compressed PDF look the same?+
At 5MB, quality loss is minimal. Most users cannot tell the difference between the original and compressed version.
Can I compress a 50MB PDF to 5MB?+
For image-heavy PDFs, yes — 90% compression is typical. For text-heavy PDFs that are already 50MB, the result depends on the content type.
