Comparison
Doc2api vs Documint
The closest thing to a like-for-like on the designer — we both give you a visual editor — and they are several times the price per document.
Where Documint is the better choice
Genuinely — if any of these is your requirement, stop reading and use them.
- Direct integrations with Airtable, Zapier, Make, Coda, HubSpot and Salesforce. Doc2api has none — it expects an API call or the embed — so if your data already lives in one of those and you want no code at all, they get you there and we do not.
- E-sign envelopes included on every plan — 5 a month on Silver, 25 on Gold, 50 on Platinum. Doc2api stamps a drawn signature into the PDF, which is not an e-signature product.
- Unlimited templates on every plan. Ours are capped at three on Free and fifteen on Starter.
- A 14-day trial with full access to every feature, rather than a free tier's subset.
- Document generation is their whole product rather than one of three things, which is worth something if it is all you need.
What Doc2api does
Three jobs, one endpoint — worth knowing before the comparison below.
1
Fill a PDF you were given
Upload a fillable PDF and its fields come back as a typed JSON schema. Flat or scanned, you draw named boxes on the page instead. The output is that exact document.
2
Design one from nothing
A drag-and-drop designer: tables with repeating rows, bar/line/pie charts, barcodes and QR codes, signature blocks, running headers and footers, watermarks, page numbers, a brand colour and type scale, elements that appear only when an expression is true, and six page sizes from A5 to Tabloid. No markup required.
3
Or hand us your own HTML
An HTML block takes your markup — headings, tables, lists, images, links and inline styles — and renders it into the document, script-free and parsed against an allow-list. Paste what you already generate instead of rebuilding it.
Where Doc2api differs
We keep your documents; they delete them in a day
Documint's own pricing page says generated documents are “retained for no longer than 24 hours”, on every tier. Doc2api keeps submission history for 3 days on Free, 7 on Starter, 30 on Pro and 90 on Business. If you need to go back and look at what was sent last week, that is the difference.
About eight times cheaper at 1,000 a month
1,000 documents a month is $124 on their Gold plan and $20 on our Starter. At 5,000 it is $249 against $50 on our Pro, which also carries 10,000.
A visual designer too — plus two things they do not have
Doc2api has its own drag-and-drop designer, so this is not template-designer versus form-filler. On top of it, the same account fills PDFs somebody else designed and renders your own HTML, and the form can be embedded for your users to complete and sign.
No account to evaluate it
Their trial starts with a signup. Here you can upload the actual PDF you are worried about and see what comes back before registering anything.

Reading these tables: These are their annual-billing prices, and the allowances are published per year — the monthly figures in brackets are ours, divided out, so the two tables can be read side by side. Their page puts annual at a 20% discount, so monthly costs more than shown. Note also that their 14-day trial is listed against Silver only; Gold and Platinum show it as not available.
Cost per document is not the whole comparison — and it does not always favour us. Where it does, it still ignores everything in the section above; where it does not, we have said so there. Read both.
Choose Documint if…
Your data lives in Salesforce or Airtable and you want a ready-made integration rather than an API call.
Choose Doc2api if…
You want the same visual designer for less money, you also need to reproduce PDFs you did not design, or you want your users filling and signing them.
Decide it in two minutes instead
Upload the actual PDF you need filled and see what comes back. You get a working endpoint and a real API key — no account, nothing to cancel.
