Nutrient

Nutrient is a document technology company that supplies developers and businesses with SDKs and tools for building secure, intelligent and dynamic document experiences. Founded in 2011 as PSPDFKit, the company set out to give developers the means to deliver seamless, secure document handling inside their applications. It has since broadened into a wider platform of foundational building blocks for enhancing, protecting and repairing document ecosystems, turning static documents into modern digital workflows.

The company's technical work spans document processing, PDF technology, developer SDKs and APIs, document security, and workflow automation. Its stated aim is to reduce complexity for both businesses and developers, with an emphasis on knowledge exchange across document ecosystems. The macronutrient metaphor behind the name reflects a product philosophy of supplying essential components rather than a single monolithic application.

Growth has come substantially through acquisition. Four companies - Aquaforest, ORPALIS, Muhimbi and Integrify - have been brought into Nutrient's document ecosystem offerings. The resulting platform is used by thousands of organisations across 80 countries, operating in fields such as software development, document management, enterprise software and business document workflows.
