Looks good! Pricing is a bit steeper than I'd expected, but I've also never tried dealing with the pains of trying to generate PDFs. What stack is it built on?

Thank you. Pricing is still experimental, I'm hoping that the easy API interface and the lack of maintenance that my clients would need to do provide a lot more value than the monthly cost.

The stack is Linux on Docker, running a tweaked version of headless Chrome with an API created in Node.
