DocuGenerate

Generate PDF documents from Word templates and JSON or Excel data

Visit DocuGenerate

DocuGenerate is a document generation service that turns Word templates and supplied data into PDF files. Templates are ordinary Word documents containing merge tags, which are detected automatically after upload; delimiters can be customised. Supported template formats include DOCX, DOC, ODT, TXT and SQL, while data can be provided as JSON, XLSX, XLS, ODS or CSV. Templates can include images, tables, lists, conditions and QR codes driven by merge tags.

The service exposes a REST API for generating documents at scale, with API access included on all plans. It also offers no-code integrations through Zapier, Make, n8n and Pipedream, along with native plugins and connectors for Bubble, Coda, Power Apps, Xano and Backendless. Documents are counted by generation rather than page count, and generated files remain available until deleted.

DocuGenerate is aimed at developers, no-code builders and teams automating documents such as invoices, letters, contracts and certificates. Pricing is usage-based, with a free plan offering a monthly document allowance and full API and integrations access, plus paid tiers that add batch generation, more templates, additional team members, template version history and higher concurrency. Annual billing and custom volume plans are available.
