PDFPipe is a developer-first PDF generation API. Send HTML, templates, or data and get production-quality PDFs in seconds. Built for SaaS apps that need invoices, reports, certificates, and documents without maintaining Puppeteer, Chromium workers, or PDF infrastructure. Features: • HTML to PDF API • Sandbox rendering for security • Node.js and Python support • MCP server for AI agents • 500 free documents/month • Simple pricing, no confusing credits
I built PDFPipe because every engineering team I worked with had the same hidden problem: a PDF service nobody wanted to touch.
It starts simple:
"Just generate an invoice."
Then slowly becomes:
* a headless browser nobody understands
* random font issues
* broken page breaks
* crashes under load
* infrastructure someone has to babysit
PDF generation is not the core product for most SaaS companies, but it becomes critical when customers depend on it.
PDFPipe turns that into one API call:
HTML in → PDF out.
I built it to handle the boring infrastructure:
* rendering
* scaling
* isolation
* reliability
The free tier includes 500 documents/month because I wanted developers to actually test it in real projects, not just run a hello-world demo.
Would love feedback:
How are you generating PDFs today?
