Effortless PDF Automation

Chirag Gupta struggled with repetitive, manual PDF creation from data scattered across platforms. To eliminate the error-prone, time-consuming process, he developed The PDF Maker—a no-code PDF generation platform that automates document creation directly from tools like Airtable, Stripe, HubSpot, and Google Sheets.

By leveraging existing Word or Google Doc templates, The PDF Maker seamlessly integrates with popular apps and offers a robust API for any team. Users can connect their data sources, insert dynamic images and tables, and generate personalized PDFs at scale without writing a single line of code.

This solution transforms complex, manual workflows into streamlined, automated processes, saving businesses hours on invoices, contracts, reports, and more.

A message from The PDF Maker

Hey Sumo-lings!👋

I’m Chirag, the co-founder of The PDF Maker, and I am really excited to launch on AppSumo and get to know your feedback and iterate on my app.

Like many of you, I’ve spent countless hours manually creating invoices, contracts, receipts, and certificates from data sitting across Airtable, Stripe, Google Sheets, CRMs, and more. It was repetitive, error-prone, and honestly draining.

So, I built The PDF Maker — it’s a no-code platform that automates PDF generation from tools you're already using: Airtable, Stripe, HubSpot, Notion, Monday.com, Make.com, Zapier, and many more.

Just connect your data source, upload your existing Word or Google Doc template, and that’s it. We handle automation. You get clean, accurate PDFs — instantly. 🧠⚡

🧩 What makes The PDF Maker different?

Most tools force you to use their editor or rebuild everything from scratch. Not here.

✅ Use your existing Google Docs or MS Word templates

✅ Pull data from Airtable, Notion, Google Sheets, Stripe, HubSpot, Make.com, and more

✅ Set up once and generate Unlimited PDFs at scale

✅ Add dynamic images, tables, conditions, and line items

🔥 Top Use Cases

1. API-first teams

If you're building your own tools or internal systems and need dynamic PDF generation — invoices, receipts, reports, etc. — our robust API makes it dead simple. Just send the data, and we’ll return a polished, branded PDF. Perfect for SaaS platforms, dev teams, and internal tools.

2. Stripe & payment platforms

Automate beautiful, branded invoices, quotes, and receipts directly from Stripe and other payment processors. Customize them with dynamic line items, taxes, and customer data pulled in real-time.

3. CRM + sales automation workflows

Use HubSpot, Go High Level, Monday.com, or Make.com? Instantly generate proposals, purchase orders, agreements, and onboarding documents the moment a deal is moved to a new stage or a form is filled — no manual steps involved.

4. Airtable, Notion & Google Sheets users

From salary slips and offer letters to certificates, reports, contracts, and more, if your data lives in a spreadsheet or workspace, you can automate polished document creation in a few clicks. Bulk-generate hundreds at once, or trigger docs based on changes.

Over 5000+ businesses have saved serious time using The PDF Maker — and over 1M+ documents have been generated so far.
