Carbone

Open Source Report and Document Generator.

Visit Carbone

Carbone is a document generation platform that lets you create PDF, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX and other files from templates and JSON data. It separates design from data so non-developers can edit templates in familiar tools like Microsoft Office or Google Docs. The platform provides an API, an MCP server for AI agents, and integrations with no-code tools. It is available as a cloud service or on-premise installation.
