Could you build this?

Partial The PDF editing, merge/split, and conversion tools are standard browser-side libraries a solo builder can assemble with AI help. The AI-writing checker and high-quality OCR need trained models and accuracy tuning that vibe coding alone won't supply.

What it would actually take: Build the core in the browser with pdf-lib or PDF.js, plus WASM tools for conversion and compression, and Tesseract.js or a similar engine for OCR. The AI-text detector needs either a hosted classifier API or a fine-tuned model trained on labeled human and AI text, plus evaluation to keep false positives acceptable. That detection quality and calibration is the hard part, and it needs ML expertise and a labeled dataset.
