PDFMonkey

Hosted Local

PDFMonkey · pdfmonkey.io since 2016 · status page · who's behind it

PDFMonkey is a hosted service from a Paris company that generates PDFs and images from Liquid or Builder templates and JSON data, through a REST API, a CLI, Ruby and Node.js SDKs, and a local MCP server.

Best for Agents that fill known templates with JSON to produce invoices, reports, forms and images, and teams that want an agent to author templates through the CLI.

From our research 9 facts checked against the vendor's pages

Surface listed: The REST API at api.pdfmonkey.io/api/v1 with the local MCP server (pdfmonkey-mcp-server 1.0.1) and the CLI (@pdfmonkey/cli 2.1.0), read from pdfmonkey.io/docs, llms-full.txt, the pricing page, the iubenda terms and privacy policy, status.pdfmonkey.io, npm, the MCP registry and a shallow clone of pdfmonkey/pdfmonkey-mcp on 3 November 2026. No account was made and no tool was called
MCP tools: list_workspaces, list_templates, get_template, generate_document (polls every 1.5 s for up to 3 minutes), get_document_status, list_documents, delete_document, list_snippets, get_snippet, get_quota, get_user_info, plus four prompts
Templates: Code templates in Liquid with HTML, SCSS and sample data, or Builder templates with blocks. Output as PDF, PNG, WebP or JPG. Fillable PDF forms, password protection, QR codes, electronic invoicing formats and share links on Pro+ and Premium
Limits: Generation time 30 seconds on Free and Starter, 2 minutes on Pro, 3 on Pro+, 5 on Premium. meta at most 200 KB. No hard request rate limit documented. Download URLs valid for one hour
Retention: Per-template TTL from 5 minutes to unlimited by plan. Documents kept 1 day on Free, Starter and the trial, 7 days on Pro, unlimited on Pro+ and Premium
Rate limits: The docs say there is no hard rate limit, only the monthly quota. The Node.js SDK retries 408, 429 and 5xx twice with backoff and honours Retry-After
SDKs and integrations: Node.js SDK pdfmonkey 1.4.0 (zero dependencies, Node 20+, Bun, Deno, Workers), Ruby gem pdfmonkey 1.0.0, CLI 2.1.0, plus Zapier, Make, n8n (verified node), Workato, Bubble and Glide
Hosting and compliance: Application on Fly.io and files on AWS in Paris, database on Neon in Frankfurt. Payloads encrypted at rest. DPA and DsPA dated 15 October 2026. No SOC 2 or ISO 27001
Legal entity: The terms and privacy policy name the owner as PDFMonkey, 49 rue de Ponthieu, Lot 41, 75008 Paris, with no company form or registration number

Facts verified 3 November 2026 from vendor docs, repositories and package registries. JSON · Markdown

Strengths

11 compact MCP tools with typed inputs, and a CLI whose management commands all take --json and exit non-zero on error
POST /api/v1/documents/sync returns the finished document in one request, waiting up to 6 minutes
Plan prices, per-document overage rates and Boost Pack prices are public in euros, with a Free plan and a 30-day trial that need no card
Key rotation keeps the old key alive for 2 days, and payloads are stored encrypted in EU data centres with a published DPA
MCP server, CLI, Node.js SDK and Ruby gem are MIT and in the official MCP registry under a verified namespace

Weaknesses

One secret key with the whole account's privileges, no scopes and no read-only key
No OpenAPI document, no changelog page and no written rate limits beyond the monthly quota
No idempotency key on document creation, so a retried create queues and bills a second document
No SLA, no security.txt, no disclosure policy and no SOC 2 or ISO 27001, which the docs state plainly
The MCP server has no tool annotations and includes a permanent delete_document

Before you call it notes for agents

Use POST /api/v1/documents/sync or the MCP generate_document tool for one document; for batches create with status: pending and poll document_cards or take the webhook
Fetch the template first (get_template or pdfmonkey template get --json) to learn the payload shape; a mismatched payload generates a blank or wrong document, not an error
Download within the hour; download_url returns 403 after 60 minutes, and fetching the document again gives a fresh link
Do not retry a create on a timeout without checking list_documents first; there is no idempotency key and each generation counts against the quota
Expect a 422 with field names when a required field is missing, and a rejected create at 100 per cent of the monthly quota unless pay-as-you-go is on

The document · read 2026-11-03

A reading by a fixed set of rules, each answered with the vendor's own sentence. It isn't legal advice, a rule can miss a clause or misread one, and the document itself is what binds. How it's read and scored.

The terms and privacy policy are iubenda documents embedded on pdfmonkey.io (iubenda ids 72376615). They name the owner as PDFMonkey at 49 rue de Ponthieu, Lot 41, 75008 Paris, with no company form or registration number. The privacy policy was last updated 16 September 2026.

The terms forbid accounts registered by bots or automated methods and contain no clause on automated reading of the website. pdfmonkey.io/robots.txt allows all crawlers.

status.pdfmonkey.io is an updown.io page with six checks (API, dashboard, preview, website, generation latency, queue size) showing one month of rolling uptime per check and no incident write-ups.

RDAP gives pdfmonkey.io a registration date of 7 May 2016. The oldest blog post is dated 9 December 2019, used for firstReleased.

/.well-known/security.txt and /security.txt return 404. There is no changelog page; product changes are announced on the blog.

Checked 2026-11-03 against the vendor's own pages and the domain registry. Provenance is half of Transparency & trust.

Simon CourtoisCTO and Co-founder

PDFMonkey on LinkedIn @pdfmonkey GitHub

Researched 3 November 2026 from public pages. Simon Courtois is the only person named on a first-hand page; every blog post read carries his author note as CTO and Co-founder, with a LinkedIn link. The docs describe a small team and the home page says the product is made in France. No other co-founder is named on pdfmonkey.io, the terms, the privacy policy or the contact page, so the roster is incomplete. Investors were looked for on the blog index, the docs, the terms, the contact page and llms.txt; nothing mentions funding or backers, and the French company register answered our reader with a loading page, so ownership is recorded as private on the docs' own description of a small, independent company. Shown for information, not part of the grade yet. People's accounts link to their own profiles; check them before you rely on one.

Notable

The official MCP server runs locally over stdio with 11 tools that list workspaces, templates and snippets, generate and delete documents and read the quota; it cannot create or edit templates, which the CLI does source
CLI 2.0 of 13 October 2026 manages templates, folders, snippets and documents from the terminal, with --json on every management command, non-zero exit codes and -y for deletions outside a terminal, written for scripts and agents source
Generation is asynchronous by default. POST /api/v1/documents with status: pending queues a document, POST /api/v1/documents/sync waits up to 6 minutes, and webhooks deliver at least once source
The docs say there is no hard rate limit on the API, only the plan's monthly quota; at 100 per cent of quota the API rejects creation requests with status: pending source
On 29 September 2026 the API was slow for a little under an hour because a database trigger serialised writes per workspace; the post-mortem of 1 October 2026 explains the cause and the fix source
Hosting is in the EU (Fly.io and AWS in Paris, Neon in Frankfurt), payloads are stored encrypted, download URLs expire after one hour, and a DPA and DsPA dated 15 October 2026 are published; there is no SOC 2 or ISO 27001 source
Published in the official MCP registry as io.github.pdfmonkey/pdfmonkey-mcp, 1.0.0 on 18 August 2026 and 1.0.1 on 26 October 2026 source

Score breakdown methodology v0.7 · October 2026 research run

Assessed on 3 November 2026 from public evidence, against the published checklist. Confidence medium. Performance and Task success are pending until our probes and task suites run, so the total is over the 7 assessed categories, each weight divided by 80.

Category	Weight this run	Score	Points
Reliabilitychecked 3 November 2026	16%20	60	12.0
Read with the hosted lines. status.pdfmonkey.io is an updown.io page with six checks (API, dashboard, preview, website, generation latency, queue size) and one month of rolling uptime per check, but no incident write-ups (15). The readable record is the uptime figures (API 99.98 per cent and queue 99.97 per cent since 3 October 2026) and the one incident the vendor wrote up, a slowdown of a little under an hour on 29 September 2026 with a post-mortem on 1 October; the 90-day list itself isn't published, so minor incidents only (20). The docs say there is no hard rate limit, only the monthly quota, so no request-rate numbers (5 for the quota numbers). The Node.js SDK retries 408, 429 and 5xx with backoff and honours Retry-After, and the webhook docs say delivery is at least once and to make handlers idempotent, but document creation has no idempotency key (10). No SLA found in the terms or pricing (0). GA (10). 15 + 20 + 5 + 10 + 0 + 10 = 60.
Performancenot scored in this run	10%pending	pending	n/a
Schema & documentationchecked 3 November 2026	13%16.2	61	9.9
No OpenAPI document was found on pdfmonkey.io, in llms-full.txt or in the repositories; the 11 MCP tools carry JSON Schema inputs from src/tools.ts (12). llms.txt and llms-full.txt, and every docs page has a Markdown twin (10). MCP tool descriptions are one line each and say what the tool does, and the MCP docs say what the server can't do (create or edit templates) and send that job to the CLI; the API docs explain async against sync and when to use each (12). Parameter tables give types and required fields, list_documents has a status enum, and `payload` is by nature a free JSON object matched to the template (10). Request examples in curl, Ruby, Node.js, Python and PHP on every endpoint, a 401 body, a 422 body with field names and a troubleshooting section for blank documents, empty and 403 download URLs (12). The API lives under /api/v1 and docs pages carry a last-updated date, but there is no changelog page, changes are announced in blog posts such as What We Shipped Since the Summer of 26 October 2026 (5). 12 + 10 + 12 + 10 + 12 + 5 = 61.
Agent ergonomicschecked 3 November 2026	13%16.2	75	12.2
11 compact MCP tools from a 17 KB tools.ts, and API responses are cards without payload or logs on list and sync endpoints, while a full template fetch is large and the SDK docs warn about it (22). `page[number]`, `q[status]`, `q[document_template_id]`, `q[updated_since]` and `q[search]` on document cards, `q[folders]` on templates and snippets, a `meta` block with pagination, and the CLI's `--json` (18). 401 and 422 bodies name the problem, 403 on an expired download URL is explained, and a quota overrun rejects the create rather than making a draft; the MCP server returns the API's error text (14). No idempotency key on create, so a retried create queues and bills a second document; webhooks are at least once with idempotency guidance; the MCP server sets no readOnlyHint or destructiveHint and `delete_document` is permanent, which the docs leave to the client to confirm (6). Only `document_template_id` and `payload` are needed, and official SDKs exist in two languages (Node.js and Ruby) plus the CLI (15). 22 + 18 + 14 + 6 + 15 = 75.
Security & authchecked 3 November 2026	14%17.5	36	6.3
One secret key per account with the whole account's privileges, sent as a Bearer header; it can be rotated with a 2-day overlap and the old key revoked at once, but there are no scopes, no second key and no read-only key (12). No least-privilege mode; the MCP server exposes `delete_document`, the CLI asks before deletions unless `-y`, and the MCP docs say most clients ask before running a delete (6). The tools return the account's own templates, documents and quota, not third-party content (10). Each document carries generation logs and the dashboard shows usage, but no audit log or per-key activity view was found (3). No security.txt (404), no disclosure policy and no bug bounty; the compliance page says there is no SOC 2 or ISO 27001, and sets against that EU hosting, encrypted payloads and a DPA dated 15 October 2026 (5). 12 + 6 + 10 + 3 + 5 = 36.
Payments & pricingchecked 3 November 2026	10%12.5	40	5.0
No x402, MPP or L402 (0). Plan prices in euros, per-document pay-as-you-go rates and the Boost Pack price are on the public pricing page and in the docs (20). A Free plan of 20 documents a month and a 30-day Pro trial of 300 documents, no card (20). Signup is a browser flow and the key is minted in the dashboard (0). 0 + 20 + 20 + 0 = 40.

Read as a closed service with open-source clients. pdfmonkey-mcp-server 1.0.1 on 26 October 2026, @pdfmonkey/cli 2.1.0 on 15 October and docs pages updated 2 November (30). Node SDK 1.1.0 to 1.4.0 between 2 and 5 October, CLI 2.0.0 and 2.1.0 on 13 and 15 October, MCP 1.0.1 on 26 October (20). Blog posts announce changes, and support answers by in-app chat and email within a few hours in CET business hours per the docs; GitHub issue replies couldn't be read (10 of 15). io.github.pdfmonkey/pdfmonkey-mcp in the official registry, 1.0.1 latest (15). The MCP server has unit tests, a release workflow on tags and a prepublish test step, but no CI on pull requests and a loose `^1.0.4` pin on the MCP SDK (6). 30 + 20 + 10 + 15 + 6 = 81.
Transparency & trusteditorial 70, provenance 86checked 3 November 2026	7%8.8	78	6.8
Closed service with iubenda terms that name the owner only as PDFMonkey at a Paris address, while the MCP server, CLI, Node SDK and Ruby gem are MIT (20). Retention statements agree across the plans page, the retention page and the data storage page (per-template TTL, 1 day, 7 days or unlimited by plan), the DPA and DsPA of 15 October 2026 are downloadable, and the privacy policy of 16 September 2026 names its processors, though it still lists Heroku where the docs name Fly.io (24). Engine deprecations were announced with a promised heads-up in 2023 and key rotation has a 2-day overlap, but there is no written deprecation policy with notice periods (8). Data locations are named (Paris and Frankfurt) and the DPA carries the approved sub-processor list (18). 20 + 24 + 8 + 18 = 70.

Graded 59.3 C methodology v0.7

Fix list 16 items, the biggest gain first

Everything this grade says the listing lacks, from the reasons above, the checklist, the provenance checks, the deductions, what we couldn't check and what the review panel asked for, with the steps, ready to paste into a coding agent working on PDFMonkey. A fix counts at the next check, once it's public.

What we couldn't check

unchecked: replies on GitHub issues of the pdfmonkey repositories, which github.com's web pages refuse our reader; maintenance responsiveness rests on the blog and the support page
unchecked: the live tools/list of the MCP server and whether its results carry annotations; the tool list and schemas are from src/tools.ts in the 1.0.1 tag
The legal entity is recorded as PDFMonkey because the iubenda terms and privacy policy give only that name and a Paris address; the French register answered our reader with a loading page, so the company form and registration number are unread
firstReleased is 9 December 2019, the date of the oldest blog post (Master Templates); the domain was registered on 7 May 2016 and the Zapier integration post is from 17 December 2019
The privacy policy of 16 September 2026 still lists Heroku among hosting providers while the docs name Fly.io, AWS and Neon; recorded as a small disagreement, not a deduction
Judgement call on reliability. The status page shows uptime per check for one month and no incident list, so the incident record is read from those figures and the vendor's own post-mortem of the 29 September 2026 slowdown

The page with the badge or the link

We read it once now and again every week. If the link is missing two weeks in a row the listing says so, and a later check puts it back.

Agents send the same to POST /api/v1/verify as {"slug": "pdfmonkey", "url": "…"}, or call the verify_listing tool at /mcp. Ten checks an hour from one address. What we check. To announce the listing, get sharing assets for social media.
