Strengths

Convert HTML, images, and text to PDF.

Convert HTML, images, and docs to PDF with a simple REST API. 100 free conversions/month. No sign-up friction.

Strengths

Prototyping or a tutorial? Pick the one that needs no API key (neither does, so compare their free tiers).
Calling from a web page? You need CORS. Otherwise route requests through your own server or a serverless function.
Going to production? Favour HTTPS, a strong uptime record and a provider with clear rate limits and terms. Check each API's docs before you commit.
Still unsure? Both are free to try: send one request to each and compare the data you get back.

Both require authentication (apiKey and apiKey).
