What differs for JSON API

For reports delivered as PDF, templates are built in HTML (16), Word (13) and a visual builder (8). Among them, 4 need Zapier, Make or n8n to read JSON sent to an API, so they sit after the tools with a direct connection. Of these, 24 have a free tier.

Besides PDF, these tools for reports also write DOCX (14), PPTX (8) and HTML (6). Your own code decides when to call the API, so a document can be built on any event. Published starting prices run from $1 to $250 a month, the top end from Formstack Documents. Prices were checked on 20 Oct 2026.
