AI PDF Extractor lets you upload text-based PDF documents, extract their readable text, review the extracted content, organize document records, and download or delete stored PDFs from a self-hosted dashboard.
No. AI PDF Extractor is sold as a one-time purchase. You install and run the application on your own compatible PHP/MySQL hosting.
Your uploaded documents are stored on the hosting account where you install the application. Document records and extracted text are stored in your own MySQL or MariaDB database.
The application is self-hosted. Under normal operation, your uploaded PDFs are processed and stored within your own installation rather than being uploaded to an AI PHP Apps document-storage service.
The extractor works best with text-based PDFs that contain selectable, machine-readable text, such as reports, contracts, manuals, invoices, proposals, and exported office documents.
Image-only and scanned PDFs do not contain normal selectable text and may return little or no readable content unless an OCR capability is separately installed or included in your version. The core extractor is designed primarily for text-based PDFs.
The application focuses on extracting readable text, not recreating the original page design. Complex columns, tables, forms, or unusual formatting may appear differently in the extracted result.
Yes. The document library keeps the original stored PDF available for authorized download, provided the file remains in its configured storage location.
Yes. Documents that are no longer needed can be removed through the document management workflow. Depending on the installed version, this can remove both the database record and its stored file.
The core PDF upload, storage, text extraction, viewing, download, and document-management workflow does not require an OpenAI API key. Any optional AI-powered analysis features included in a future or upgraded version may require separate API configuration.
Yes, provided your hosting supports PHP 8.1 or newer, MySQL or MariaDB, PDO MySQL, required PDF-processing capabilities, file uploads, and writable application storage directories.
The practical upload limit depends on both the application configuration and your server settings, including upload_max_filesize, post_max_size, memory_limit, and available storage space.
The standard application is intended to be installed and managed as your own document workspace. Review the included license and user-management capabilities before providing access to separate clients or organizations.
Yes. This is a downloadable self-hosted PHP/MySQL application. You control the installed files, database, hosting environment, and uploaded documents subject to the included software license.
The application will report that no readable text was found or return a limited result. This commonly occurs with scanned pages, image-only documents, protected files, damaged PDFs, or unusual embedded fonts.
The purchase includes the product package and its documentation. The exact support and update terms are defined by the current AI PHP Apps purchase and licensing policy.
This app is built for common PHP/MySQL hosting. If you already have hosting, you can upload the files, create a database, and install it. If you need a simple place to start, we can point you toward beginner-friendly hosting.
Own the tool, install it on your hosting, and avoid another monthly subscription.
