Create a Fillable PDF
Every text field, checkbox, date, and signature detected, typed, and placed to the pixel — and shown to you with a confidence score on every box. The most accurate flat-to-fillable conversion available.
Watch any flat PDF
become fillable.
The detector sweeps the page, finds every field, classifies its type, and draws the interactive boundary — in a single pass, every time.
From flat to fillable, faithfully.
Detect every field
Boundaries, labels, and tab order inferred per field, each with a confidence score.
Type it correctly
14 distinct field types, each mapped to the right interactive widget.
Return + schema
A standards-compliant AcroForm plus a typed JSON schema of every field.
A single misplaced field breaks the whole form.
Generic OCR guesses at boundaries and types. We benchmark against 50,000+ real government, finance, and healthcare forms — and publish the method.
One request. Two SDK lines. Live before lunch.

Built for the forms that can't be wrong.
Every field type, typed
Not just text boxes — 14 distinct types including checkbox, radio, dropdown, date, currency, and signature, each set to the correct widget.
A typed JSON schema
Wire fields directly to your data model without ever parsing the PDF yourself.
Built like infrastructure
Idempotency keys and automatic retries, so repeated calls stay safe and predictable.
Secure by default
Encrypted in transit and at rest, with files auto-deleted within 24 hours.
Tested on the forms teams actually deal with.
"We replaced a three-week manual templating process with one API call. The detection is genuinely better than what our team did by hand."
"At 40,000 government forms a month, a 1% field-error rate was unacceptable. Create a Fillable PDF closed the gap."
Questions developers ask first.
Everything else lives in the docs — or ask us directly.
Any PDF — scanned, exported from Word or InDesign, or born-digital. Send a file upload or a URL; we normalize it before detection.
Field-by-field against a hand-labeled corpus of 50,213 real government, finance, and healthcare forms. We publish the methodology and re-run it every quarter.
A standards-compliant AcroForm PDF plus a typed JSON schema describing every field: name, type, format, bounding box, tab order, and a confidence score.
Encrypted in transit and at rest, and every uploaded file is permanently deleted within 24 hours. A zero-retention mode is available on Scale.
Each plan has a requests-per-minute limit. If you need higher throughput for large jobs, contact us and we'll raise it.
Pay for conversions. Nothing else.
