About

PDFBolt is a PDF generation API that converts HTML, URLs, or reusable templates into PDF documents. It supports direct, sync, and async API endpoints, Handlebars-based templates, and AI-assisted template creation and editing with side-by-side review before accepting changes.

The free plan includes 100 documents per month, 20 requests per minute, 1 concurrent request, a 2 MB PDF file size limit, 1 template, and 1 AI template generation.

Feature parity 85%

This free tier is genuinely usable, not just a teaser: it resets every month, includes the core customization features, and does not require a credit card. Compared with the cheapest paid plan at $19/month, the 100-document cap and tighter rate/concurrency/file-size limits make it feel worth about $4/month, or roughly 20% of Basic’s value.
