Massive API Update In Progress + Google One-Tap + New Usage Dashboard
We’re currently working on a massive PrefillPDF update - a major expansion of our API with a bunch of new tools and services designed to make PDF automation feel effortless.
While the bigger release is being built, we’ve shipped a set of improvements that make the platform faster to adopt, easier to navigate, and much more transparent day-to-day.
A Big Upgrade Is Coming
Our mission is simple: help businesses automate PDF workflows and make the entire process simple, smooth, and flexible - with a wide range of tools you can combine into real operational workflows.
A lot of businesses still pay thousands - sometimes tens of thousands - per year for PDF tool subscriptions from major brands.
But there’s a better way for many teams: build lightweight workflows with API tools around the exact operational problems their business faces - which streamlines operations and scales with you.
From user feedback so far:
- 57% of users report improving day-to-day operations
- and some report winning back up to ~4 hours per day through automation and reduced manual PDF work
Shipped Now: Google Sign-In + One-Tap From the Landing Page
We added:
- Google Sign-In for quick account creation and login
- Google One-Tap from the landing page (Chrome users) so you can go from “visit” to “signed in” in seconds
That means less friction, fewer steps, and a faster path to building your first PDF workflow.
New Dashboard Improvements: Transparent Usage + Template-Level Tracking
We also shipped UI and dashboard upgrades focused on clarity and control - so you always know exactly what’s happening and what it costs.
You can now see a full usage breakdown, including:
Usage Summary
- Total Spent (with your effective cost per credit)
- Total Requests
- Success Rate + total Errors
- Credits Used (credits + dollar value)
Endpoint Breakdown (By Service)
See service-level usage like:
- PDF API Calls (e.g. 1 credit per call)
- Watermark API Calls (e.g. 2 credits per call)
- clear “used / limit” visibility (where applicable)
Request History With Template Names
Every request can be reviewed with:
- Endpoint (ex: `POST /fill-pdf`)
- Service / Template name (ex: Graphic Design Invoice)
- Credits charged
- Date + time
- Status (success / error)
This makes it easy to answer questions like:
- Which templates are being used the most?
- Where are we spending credits?
- What’s our success rate over time?
- Which endpoints are generating errors?
What’s Next
We’re continuously expanding PrefillPDF into the most practical PDF automation toolbox available. The upcoming update includes a larger set of tools and services so you can build complete PDF workflows end-to-end.
