In their own words
DocPayload
DocPayload generates PDF and DOCX documents from a JSON definition, with SVG also available as an API output. Inputs can include JSON payloads, stored templates, data objects, arrays, and data files. Listed document features include barcodes, AcroForm fields, watermarks, vector charts, signatures, and encryption. Its API uses standard HTTP requests, so an application that can POST JSON can connect without a language-specific SDK. Documents can be returned synchronously, emailed, or sent to an endpoint through webhooks with signed payloads and retries. DocPayload supports more than 100 scripts, including CJK, Devanagari, Thai, Arabic, and Hebrew. Deployment options include web and API access, self-hosting, VPC, and regional deployments in the US, EU, Canada, and UAE; the company says data stays in the chosen region. Starter is free and limited to up to five documents. Pay-as-you-go is billed at $0.50 page, and Enterprise costs $79 a month.
