Orshot
API for automated image, PDF and video generation from templates
Orshot is an API-first platform for generating images, PDFs and videos from templates. It addresses the manual production of repetitive visuals by letting teams design a template once and render it repeatedly from live data, through a REST API, no-code automation tools, or AI agents. Results can be delivered to apps, storage buckets and social platforms, including scheduled publishing.
Core capabilities include the Orshot Studio editor with parameterized layers, Smart Resize, animations, brand asset libraries, and imports from Canva, Figma, HTML and other design tools. Rendering supports PNG, JPG, WebP, AVIF, multi-page PDFs, and MP4, WebM, MOV and GIF video with audio, transitions and subtitles. AI features cover design generation, video and voiceover creation, and render-time content generation, with the option to bring your own AI key. Delivery is handled through REST APIs, SDKs for Node, Python, PHP and Ruby, a CLI, webhooks, batch rendering, and an MCP server for AI agents. Automation connects to Google Sheets, Airtable, Notion, Shopify, HubSpot, Slack, Drive, S3 and more, with social publishing and analytics for 15+ platforms.
Orshot is aimed at developers, agencies, marketing teams and AI-agent builders. It offers a free starting plan, workspaces for client isolation, roles and permissions, approval flows, white-label embedding, and enterprise SSO.
