How it works

What happens after I drop a file?

Files upload encrypted to our EU servers. Extract.FAST renders slides or pages, preserves original media, exports text and notes where available, and packages the results into a ZIP download. Outputs stay encrypted at rest and auto-delete after 1 hour.

Can I process files in bulk?

Yes. Drop up to 1,000 files per task with a Pro plan. Free users can process up to 25 files per task.

How are results delivered?

Each extraction returns a ZIP with the files we can extract from the source document. Multi-file tasks keep each document's output organized so you can download everything together.

Privacy & Security

How long do you keep files?

Auto-delete after 1 hour on all tiers. No backups are created. Once deleted, files are unrecoverable by design.

How do you encrypt my files?

Files are encrypted with TLS 1.3 during upload, then encrypted at rest on our servers. Files are decrypted only while your requested extraction is running.

What metadata do you keep?

Minimal job data for billing and fraud prevention: extraction type, file sizes, processing time, credits consumed, and irreversible IP hashes. We do not mine or monetize file contents.

Do you train on customer files?

No. Your files are never used for AI training, machine learning, or any purpose beyond the extraction you requested. We process, deliver, then delete.
