Docmosis

Template-based document generation service creating PDF and Word documents via API.

Visit Docmosis

Docmosis is a template-based document generation service that solves the problem of creating custom PDF and Word documents from business applications. It eliminates the need for developers to write code for every document layout by allowing users to design templates in Microsoft Word or LibreOffice Writer, then populate them with dynamic data. This approach enables faster document changes and reduces the dependency on development teams for template maintenance.

The product is available in three deployment options: Cloud (a SaaS service hosted on AWS), Tornado (a self-hosted standalone engine accessible via REST API), and Docmosis-Java (a Java library for direct integration). All versions share the same core engine, which supports conditional content, repeating data in tables, images, barcodes, QR codes, calculations, and multiple output formats including PDF, DOCX, ODT, and TXT. The engine is API-first, allowing integration with custom software or third-party platforms such as Zapier, Airtable, Google Sheets, and various form builders.

Docmosis is designed for SaaS companies, small-to-medium businesses, large corporations, and tech-savvy professionals across finance, insurance, health, legal, education, HR, and logistics sectors. The Cloud service offers a free trial with no credit card required and subscription pricing based on usage. The self-hosted Tornado and Docmosis-Java products are licensed per production instance, with no limits on supporting environments.
