Smart PDF Rename — Auto Rename & Organize PDFs

Auto-rename PDFs from their title, author, date, arXiv/DOI/invoice number. Batch PDF organizer. 100% local & private.

Tired of `document(3).pdf`, `scan_0007.pdf` and `1706.03762.pdf` clogging your Downloads folder? Smart PDF Rename reads what's already inside each PDF and proposes a clean, descriptive filename — no typing, no cloud, no account. 🧠 SMART NAMES, FROM THE PDF ITSELF • Uses the PDF's own Title/Author metadata when present • Falls back to the big headline on page one (font-size + position heuristics) • Recognizes structured IDs: arXiv ID, DOI, ISBN, invoice number • Detects document type: academic paper (title + author + year), invoice/receipt (vendor + date + number), e-book, general document • Sensible date fallback when nothing else is available 🗂 BATCH MODE Drop in a whole folder's worth of PDFs, review every original → suggested name in one list, tweak any you like, then save the renamed copies in one click. 🧩 YOUR NAMING, YOUR RULES • Custom filename template — e.g. `{year}-{author}-{title}` or `{date}-{vendor}-invoice-{id}` • Choose the word separator (dash / underscore / space) • Configure how illegal filename characters are replaced • Optional lowercase 🔒 100% LOCAL — PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No tracking. No network requests of any kind. The PDF parser (pdf.js) is bundled inside the extension; your files are read in your browser and never uploaded. We couldn't see your documents even if we wanted to. WHY IT'S DIFFERENT Most "AI rename" tools upload your files to a server or need an API key. Smart PDF Rename does the smart part locally with transparent heuristics — free, offline, and privacy-first. Tip: click the extension icon, then "⤢ Tab" to open the full workspace — best for renaming many PDFs at once.
