PDFs are cumbersome and challenging to manage with modern web technologies. The Anvil PDF API simplifies PDF filling, generation, and e-signing into RESTful endpoints, eliminating the pain of working with PDFs.
@benogle Wow. This is such a simple and elegant solution to such a complex and nasty problem. PDFs are always a headache. GraphQL support is so cool. Clean and beautiful design. Love the pay-as-you-go pricing model too.
Are you guys planning to focus more on paper-work & forms in general, or are you planning to go even deeper with PDF and add things like LaTeX support, resume templates etc?
@benogle@mechanical_turk we are definitely open to feature requests! We already have some great feedback and things to incorporate in the next iteration. Let us know if there is anything specific you are looking for.
@mechanical_turk Thanks! Specifically LaTeX support hasn't really been on our radar, but we generally have some things in the pipe that will make it even easier to generate totally all-in custom PDFs. Our goal with these APIs is to make interacting with all paperwork programmatically really really easy!
I love how easy Anvil is to use, and how quick it is to build forms that aren't a pain in the A$$ or fraught with errors and kickbacks! Every paperwork process could benefit from Anvil, from home closings to student signup forms...so much potential for this! Super great use of tech to help developers build better user experiences!
