APITemplate.io alternativeBannerifyvsAPITemplate.io

APITemplate.io makes PDFs from HTML templates and images from a visual editor. Bannerify makes both images and PDFs from one canvas, on a chromeless Rust engine, with 3,000 renders for $29.

Why teams switch

Where Bannerify is different.

Same job: design a template once, fill it with data many times. Different engine underneath.

  • 2× the renders for $29

    APITemplate.io Starter is $29 a month billed yearly, or $35 monthly, for 1,500 images and PDFs. Bannerify Automate gives 3,000 for $29 a month.

  • No headless browser

    APITemplate.io renders PDFs in headless Chromium. Bannerify renders images and PDFs on a chromeless engine written in Rust.

  • Your whole team on Automate

    APITemplate.io lists team accounts from its $89 Standard plan. Bannerify Automate includes unlimited seats.

Plan by plan, feature by feature.

When APITemplate.io is the better pick.

Bannerify does one job: templates in, images and PDFs out. If your job looks like one of these, APITemplate.io may fit you better.

  • You write PDF templates in HTML, CSS, and Jinja2, or turn HTML, web pages, or Markdown into PDFs.
  • Your PDFs run to many pages: APITemplate.io counts a multi-page PDF as one credit.
  • You must choose the region where your files are stored.
  • You need PDF/A-3b output for archiving or e-invoices.

Switch from APITemplate.io in three steps.

  1. 01

    Rebuild one template

    Start from a blank canvas or a gallery template, or import a Figma frame with the Bannerify plugin. Text, images, QR codes, tables, and charts are layers that your data can fill.

  2. 02

    Name the layers that change

    Give each layer that takes data a name, such as headline or photo. A request changes each named layer and keeps the rest of the design.

  3. 03

    Send your data

    Call the REST API or an SDK from your code, or connect a spreadsheet or form through Zapier, n8n, or Pipedream. The free plan gives 100 renders a month to test with.

Try it on your own templates.
