PDFs, but snappy

In beta — free while we tighten the last screws.

Template → variables → PDF

1

Design it

Drag blocks onto the page or start from one of seven ready-made starters.

2

Variable-ize it

Swap anything that changes for a {{ variable }} and preview with sample data.

3

POST it

One API call with your JSON returns the finished PDF, typically in well under a second.

POST /api/v1/render { "templateId": "6512f3a9c4d21b0f7e8a4c19", "data": { "clientName": "Acme Studio", "total": "$1,130.50" } }

The small print, minus the pain

Variables in anything
Text, tables, images, barcodes — if it changes per document, it can be a variable.
Repeating table rows
Pass an array; rows render themselves. Ten line items or ten thousand.
Real page control
Headers, footers, page numbers and breaks — in actual millimetres.
Preview mode
See the rendered PDF with sample data before anything ships.
Publish safely
Drafts stay private; the API serves your last published version.
Free in beta
No card, no watermarks. Early users get grandfathered pricing.

Stop hand-crafting PDFs

Your first template takes five minutes. The ten-thousandth PDF takes a fraction of a second.
