Straightened, with the text recognized so you can search it later.
What's different in aval
Up to 50 pages
A whole booklet in one go.
Then, anything else
Compress it for email, sign it or merge it with other documents.
It checks every document
When you upload it, aval looks for blank pages, upside-down scans, pages without text and empty signature fields, and offers the fix.
Your file stays with aval
It's processed on our servers and stored encrypted with your account's key. It isn't sent to other services, shown ads, or used to train AI.
Questions
Do I need to install an app?
No. It works in the phone's browser; if you want, add it to your home screen and it opens like an app.
Can I turn photos I already have into a PDF?
Yes: upload them and choose Images to PDF.
