Generate completed PDFs, extract JSON from uploaded documents, and route PDF data across thousands of apps.

Extract JSON from PDF · PDF Template API · Documentation

PrefillPDF can sit inside a Zapier workflow as the document-processing step. Send structured data into a PDF template, or submit an existing PDF and continue the workflow with structured JSON.

This is useful for teams that want to connect forms, CRMs, spreadsheets, storage tools, email platforms, and internal systems without maintaining a custom document server.

Common Zapier workflows

Form submission to completed PDF

Trigger from a form, map submitted fields into a PrefillPDF template, then email or store the finished document.

Uploaded PDF to structured JSON

Receive a PDF from a form or storage app, extract document data, and send the resulting JSON to your CRM or database.

CRM record to proposal

Generate a proposal, application, agreement, or invoice when a CRM record reaches a selected stage.
