Unlayer
Unlayer is an embeddable developer platform for adding email, page, popup, and document builders to software products. Its AI-assisted drag-and-drop email editor is described as rendering across Gmail, Outlook, and more than 90 other email clients. The page builder creates responsive landing pages and web content with sections, columns, and breakpoints. The document builder supports dynamic templates, merge tags, collaborative editing, and PDF or HTML export. Developer tools include an embeddable SDK, REST APIs, React Elements, a CLI, agent skills, and events. Unlayer offers React, Angular, and Vue integrations, while its JavaScript SDK is described as technology agnostic. Exports include HTML, PDF, images, plain text, and ZIP, with server-side or client-side options. A free plan includes all four builder types. Paid plans start at $250/mo and include 1 TB bandwidth; extra bandwidth is sold in recurring 500 GB packs for $50 per month. Enterprise plans include custom contracts and support and allow self-hosting inside a customer VPC.
