Product node overview & trust baseline

Operator provenance, privacy baseline and site-wide pricing belong directly to the product node and are inherited across linked task edges

FreeConvert, operated by TRMedia Inc. (United States) under a "Subscription + credits" model, has 3 published task assessments on RealTest (PDF compression 93/100, PDF to Word 92/100, Image compression 84/100). In pdf compression, generously supports files up to 1 GB without login, reducing our 1.66 MB PDF by 77.14% to 379.3 KB with 100% vector text retention, tempered by display ads and an 11.84s processing time. In pdf to word, login-free conversion delivers editable tables with a clear download button and deletion control; ads and cloud upload are the trade-offs.

Free tier + subscription · 3 shared tested task edges TinyWow (tinywow.com)

Monthly and annual modes confirm annual bills USD 72 / 180. Current PDF Unlimited and all-tool TinyWow Unlimited replace the historical Supporter description. Other single-category subscriptions do not include PDF. Numeric free limits and cancellation terms remain unspecified.

Completely free · 3 shared tested task edges 11zon (11zon.com)

The official tool page states free, unlimited conversion. Numeric size and page limits are not published; the claim is not a guarantee for arbitrary files.

Subscription + credits · 3 shared tested task edges CloudConvert (cloudconvert.com)

Confirmed 75 package and 73 monthly subscription capacities; subscriptions start at 1,000 credits. The table says 10 free credits/day while the footer says 10 conversions/day; this conflict does not establish 10 PDFs. PDF-to-Office has a 4-credit base and longer processing incurs more, replacing the historical mixed minutes/count description.

Free tier + subscription · 3 shared tested task edges XConvert (xconvert.com)

Monthly and actual annual bills appear on one pricing page. Daily video counts are not PDF allowances. The PDF-to-DOCX page explicitly says it does not perform OCR.
