Secure, Lower-Cost AI With Local AI and Bring-Your-Own-Model

PDF Editor 2026.2 debuts Local AI, a first among PDF editors. Local AI extends PDF Editor’s document intelligence for security-conscious users who want to deploy and run LLMs on their local machines, supporting AI document processing directly on qualifying Windows and Mac devices using Microsoft Foundry Local. Once a compatible model is downloaded, processing and storage for supported tasks stay on the device, enabling people to work offline and keep sensitive content entirely off cloud-based AI services.

With bring-your-own-model support, organizations use their existing frontier model licenses and reduce token consumption costs. Teams connect a license to Foxit AI and apply AI to more of their document work within budgets and security policies they already manage.

For teams in legal, financial services, healthcare, and government, the combination covers documents subject to client confidentiality, contractual restrictions, internal security policies, or regulatory requirements.

Learn more about keeping sensitive document work secure with Local AI and bring-your-own-model support.

"Our partners are looking for AI they can deploy today, in tools their customers already use," said Scott Young, SVP Strategic Procurement, TD SYNNEX. "Foxit's approach to document AI, including on-device processing and support for multiple AI models, provides partners with additional options to address the security and compliance requirements of customers in regulated industries."

New System Replaces Fragmented Storage Tools With a Single Platform for Editing, Signing, and Managing Documents

FREMONT, Calif. - May 13, 2026 - Foxit, the leading provider of PDF, eSignature, and document intelligence solutions, today announced the launch of its Document Management System (DMS) – a centralized, intelligent document hub that goes beyond cloud storage to give organizations structure, security, and control across the entire document lifecycle. Built natively into Foxit PDF Editor and Foxit eSign, DMS provides a single source of truth for every file, from creation and collaboration to signing, archiving and governance.

As enterprises generate and store vast volumes of documents across disconnected systems, employees are spending significant time searching for information, recreating lost files, and managing duplicate versions. Gartner estimates that up to 80% of enterprise data is unstructured, while industry research suggests knowledge workers spend 20% to 30% of their time searching for information.

Atlassian’s 2025 State of Teams report, based on a survey of 12,000 knowledge workers and 200 Fortune 1,000 executives, found that more than half of employees duplicate work done by other teams without realizing it – directly due to fragmented information and poor document visibility. Foxit’s own State of Document Intelligence report, published in March 2026, found that fragmented document workflows are a primary driver of the AI productivity gap, redistributing work rather than eliminating it. The cost of inaction is significant: businesses lose over $14 million annually due to compliance violations, and 53% of companies have more than 1,000 sensitive files open to all employees.

Foxit’s new DMS addresses this growing challenge by bridging document storage, management, editing, and signing into a single, unified platform – eliminating the need for multiple tools and reducing operating complexity.

“The fragmentation problem in document management has a real cost, and research makes that clear,” said Evan Reiss, SVP Marketing and Innovation, Foxit. “Broken workflows don't just slow teams down. They redistribute work that AI was supposed to eliminate. DMS gives organizations the infrastructure to fix that: one connected system where documents are stored, found, governed and acted on without friction.”

Moving Beyond Storage to Document Lifecycle Management

Unlike traditional cloud storage solutions that focus primarily on file storage and sharing, Foxit DMS is built to manage the full document lifecycle. The system provides a centralized, cloud-based repository where users can access documents with greater visibility and governance. Structured folders, metadata tagging and full-text OCR search reduce document retrieval times by up to 40%, while version history, check-in/check-out controls and compliance logs maintain a clear, auditable record of every edit, approval and signature event.

Fully integrated within Foxit PDF Editor and Foxit eSign, DMS enables users to edit, sign, store, and manage files without switching between tools or duplicating content. This unified approach creates a single source of truth for business-critical documents, improving collaboration and reducing errors.

Key Capabilities

Key capabilities include:

• Centralized document repository with unlimited pooled cloud storage
• Advanced storage and metadata tagging, custom classification and full-text OCR search for faster file discovery
• Version control and check-in/check-out to prevent duplication and conflicts
• Role-based access controls and audit trails to support governance and oversight
• Encryption, role-based access controls and retention rules to safeguard files and support regulatory compliance
• Retention policies and lifecycle management to automate document handling

Together, these capabilities help organizations reduce time spent searching files, improve document accuracy, and strengthen control over sensitive information.

Driving Efficiency and Reducing Costs

By consolidating document workflows into a single platform, Foxit DMS helps organizations streamline operations and improve productivity. Businesses can reduce reliance on multiple storage and collaboration tools, minimize duplication, and ensure employees are always working from the most up-to-date version of a document. Tool consolidation alone can reduce administrative overhead by up to 30%, freeing teams to focus on higher-value work.

Foxit DMS is included within Foxit PDF Editor and Foxit eSign subscriptions at no additional cost, providing organizations with a cost-effective way to modernize document management without adding complexity or new systems.

Availability

Foxit Document Management System is available from May 13, 2026, with rollout initially in North America and Europe and accessible via https://cloud.foxit.com/.

For further information on Foxit DMS visit https://www.foxit.com/document-management-system/.

FREMONT, Calif. - April 22, 2026 - Foxit, a leading provider of PDF and document intelligence solutions, today announced the launch of its PDF Editor app inside ChatGPT, enabling users to complete full document workflows directly within the AI environment, from creation and organizing through to optimization, sharing, and lifecycle management.

AI is becoming the primary workspace but document workflows are lagging behind

The launch comes as tools like ChatGPT rapidly evolve from assistive technologies into central workspaces. Increasingly, professionals are drafting reports, analyzing data, and collaborating on ideas inside AI. Yet despite this shift, document workflows have struggled to keep pace, often requiring users to leave the conversation to format, organize, and prepare files for real-world use.

New data reveals the hidden “verification burden” in AI workflows

Recent research from Foxit highlights the scale of this disconnect. While 89% of executives say AI boosts productivity, the reality is more nuanced. Once validation time is factored in, executives gain just 16 minutes per week, while end users lose 14 minutes. The findings point to a growing “verification burden,” where time saved generating content is offset by time required to review, fact-check, and prepare documents before they can be shared.

From AI output to finished documents, with a single workflow

Foxit’s PDF Editor app for ChatGPT is designed to close this gap by embedding document workflows directly into the AI experience. Within a single conversation, users can convert files between formats, reorganize and compare documents, extract and analyze content, and optimize PDFs for distribution. The app also extends to the final stages of document work, enabling users to generate shareable links, manage files in cloud storage, and remove documents once work is complete — all without leaving ChatGPT or requiring a Foxit account. Users can invoke Foxit using @mentions within a conversation or let ChatGPT suggest it automatically when a document task arises, making it easy to access capabilities as part of the natural flow of work.

“AI has shifted where work happens,” said Evan Reiss, SVP of Marketing, Foxit. “You can generate content in seconds, but turning it into something accurate, formatted, and ready to use still takes time. That’s where most productivity is lost. By bringing our document engine into ChatGPT, we’re enabling users to go from initial prompt to finished, shareable document in one place.”

Enabling the next phase of AI-native document work

This approach reflects a broader shift toward what Foxit describes as AI-native document workflows, where intent expressed in natural language can be carried through to completion. Rather than stopping at content generation, users can now produce fully optimized, ready-to-send documents within the same environment. This reduces friction, minimizes manual intervention, and improves overall workflow efficiency.

Built for scale, powered by OpenAI’s ecosystem

The app is built on OpenAI’s Apps SDK, extending Foxit’s existing integrations across enterprise platforms including Salesforce and Jira. Foxit’s PDF technology is already widely deployed across major ecosystems, including Google Chrome, Gmail, and Amazon Kindle, reinforcing its position as a trusted provider of document infrastructure at scale.

The free Foxit PDF Editor app for ChatGPT is available now to logged-in ChatGPT users across Free, Go, Plus and Pro plans.

New release targets growing risks in everyday documents while advancing AI-powered workflows

FREMONT, Calif., March 31, 2026 — Foxit Software today introduced a new capability designed to uncover hidden security risks inside PDFs, as part of its latest PDF Editor 2026.1 release for Windows and macOS.

The update is led by PDF Action Inspector, a new tool that proactively scans documents for embedded JavaScript and self-modifying behaviors - threats that can bypass redaction, expose sensitive data, or alter document output without detection. As organizations increasingly rely on PDFs to share critical infrastructure, these risks have become a growing but often overlooked attack surface.

“Most organizations don’t realize that everyday documents can contain active code,” said Evan Reiss, Senior Vice President of Marketing at Foxit Software. ”PDF Action Inspector gives teams visibility into behaviors that would otherwise remain hidden, helping them identify risks before they cause real damage.”

The release reflects a broader shift in how documents are created, shared, and secured. As workflows become more digital and AI-driven, documents are no longer static files but dynamic assets that require greater oversight, intelligence, and control.

Alongside its new security capabilities, Foxit PDF Editor 2026.1 expands enterprise protection to help organizations manage documents consistently across environments. Microsoft Azure Information Protection is now available in the Mac App Store version, enabling unified policy enforcement across Windows and macOS devices. Support for FileOpen-protected PDFs has also been added to Mac editions for Editor and Reader, improving access to DRM-protected content across teams. The update also introduces a series of workflow and usability improvements shaped by customer feedback.

Enhancements to licensing and login stability aim to reduce friction during enterprise rollouts, while a new license page provides clearer visibility into subscription and entitlement details. Additional updates to annotation, file splitting, and page extraction workflows are designed to streamline everyday document tasks and reduce user error. Foxit also continues to advance its AI Assistant, with updates focused on security controls, governance, and compliance alignment.

These enhancements are part of Foxit’s broader vision to enable more intelligent, efficient, and secure document workflows. PDF Editor 2026.1 is available now for Windows and macOS.

Enhancing document management with cutting-edge features and robust security

Fremont, Calif., December 19, 2025, Foxit, a global leader in PDF and document productivity solutions, that help knowledge workers increase productivity and do more with documents, announced the release of Foxit PDF Editor v2025.3.

This latest version strengthens Foxit's commitment to delivering secure, compliant and intelligent document workflows.

"This milestone release emphasizes our strategic vision to lead the industry in responsible data protection and secure, frictionless collaboration," said Evan Reiss, SVP of Marketing, Foxit. "By empowering organizations with innovative features designed for today's dynamic digital environment, we enable teams to confidently manage, share and protect critical information–boosting efficiency and trust across every workflow."

Enhanced Compliance With Collaboration

Foxit PDF Editor v2025.3 introduces important updates that enhance secure collaboration and responsible data protection. These improvements offer greater transparency and control during shared document workflows and help organizations uphold governance standards.

• Consent Collection: Users receive a clear region-specific consent prompt before accessing shared documents. The prompt informs participants that others may see their information and requires them to explicitly opt in.
• Invitation Transparency: Collaboration invitations now state that participant names and email addresses may be visible to others and include a direct link to Foxit’s Privacy Policy.
• Audit and Data Handling: Consent activity, including user identity, timestamp, IP address and consent text, is securely logged for audit purposes. If users decline consent, the system automatically anonymizes them in shared environments.

These updates reinforce Foxit’s commitment to delivering secure, compliant document collaboration solutions for enterprise and government customers.

Strengthened Security in Windows

Foxit PDF Editor v2025.3 introduces important security improvements for Windows users who rely on Microsoft Sensitivity Labels to safeguard confidential content. The update incorporates automatic authentication with the Microsoft Azure Information Protection (AIP) plugin by using the user’s current single sign-on session, removing the need for repeated login prompts and ensuring protected documents open smoothly with the correct access rights. Organizations can control this behavior centrally through registry settings or the Foxit Customization Wizard, thereby enhancing consistency and reducing the risk of access issues. These updates make high-security workflows more efficient, save users time when handling labeled documents, and reinforce compliance with internal policies.

Additionally, Windows users now have a new option that automatically removes hidden information when saving or closing a document, helping teams protect sensitive metadata and maintain internal privacy standards. These improvements enhance secure document workflows and improve the overall user experience for organizations that handle sensitivity-labeled and compliance-protected content.

Additional Feature Enhancements Across Windows and Mac

Foxit PDF Editor v2025.3 enhances its AI features with new tools that help users work smarter and faster. The update introduces AI image generation to create visuals directly from text prompts, moves the Summarize Document feature to the main AI Assistant ribbon for easier access, adds translation support for 9 additional languages, and allows users to export AI-generated answers directly to Word or PDF for instant sharing and editing. Also, Foxit PDF Editor now features an enhanced Smart Command mode that lets users perform PDF tasks using natural language. Turn it on in “More Tools” and simply type what you want to do, whether it's adding a watermark, applying Bates numbering, or removing pages from a document. In addition to AI improvements, the update also offers broader productivity and usability enhancements to improve collaboration and streamline daily document tasks. Additionally, it adds support for Dropbox Team Folders across Windows and Mac, making it easier for teams to access and share centrally managed content.

Windows users also experience an improved commenting system that simplifies review tasks. A new favorites toolbox lets teams save and reuse custom markup styles for faster, more consistent annotations. Enhanced compatibility enables users to edit annotation properties for comments created in Bluebeam, supporting review workflows. Finally, the option to export comments to CSV makes it easier to gather feedback and support project or audit workflows.

CNA authorization empowers Foxit to assign official CVE IDs, advancing transparency and efficiency in vulnerability disclosure

Fremont, Calif, October 14, 2025 – Foxit, a global leader in PDF and document productivity solutions, today announced that it has been authorized as a CVE Numbering Authority (CNA) by the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) Program.

This designation officially authorizes Foxit to assign CVE Identifiers (IDs) and publish CVE Records for security vulnerabilities found in its products, greatly simplifying the process for coordinated disclosure and patching for its global customer base, including enterprise and government clients.

Taking Control of the Vulnerability Lifecycle

As a newly certified CNA, Foxit will directly help uphold the global standard for vulnerability detection. This status emphasizes the company's dedication to proactive security, transparency, and compliance with strict federal and international compliance regulations.

"Becoming a CNA is a crucial step in advancing our product security program and strengthens our dedication to global security standards," said Derek O’Neill, Director, Data Privacy & Information Security at Foxit. "It enables us to respond more quickly, ensuring that when a security flaw is discovered internally or by an external researcher, it is immediately recognized as a security anomaly and assigned a unique, standardized CVE ID, with consistent tracking. This faster management of the vulnerability lifecycle improves our ability to release patches and issue advisories swiftly, ultimately protecting our customers effectively."

Key Benefits of Foxit’s CNA Status:

• Faster Response: Direct control over ID assignment significantly reduces the time between vulnerability discovery and official public notification.
• Enhanced Transparency: The ability to issue official CVE Records provides customers and security analysts with clearer, standardized information about vulnerabilities affecting Foxit products.
• Streamlined Collaboration: Foxit can now more effectively coordinate the disclosure process with independent security researchers, ensuring proper credit and protecting users from zero-day exploits.

Commitment to the Global Security Community

The CVE Program, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), is a global effort to identify, define, and catalog publicly known cybersecurity vulnerabilities. Foxit joins hundreds of organizations worldwide participating in this effort.

Foxit is dedicated to fostering a more secure ecosystem and encourages security researchers to continue reporting potential vulnerabilities through its established disclosure channel at www.foxit.com/support/security.
