Rendershot

Rendershot is a screenshot and PDF API for developers. It renders any URL or HTML to PNG, JPEG, or PDF, and the page highlights uses such as invoices, OG images, reports, web screenshots, scheduled captures, and CI monitoring for visual regressions.

The service accepts POST requests to /v1/screenshot and /v1/pdf, and it also mentions a /v1/bulk endpoint for submitting up to 20 render jobs in one request. Requests can use a URL or a raw HTML string, and the response returns raw PNG, JPEG, or PDF bytes. The page also describes async rendering with a job ID for polling, plus an AI cleanup option that can remove cookie consent banners, chat widgets, and popups before capture. Fast mode and thorough mode are both named, with different credit costs.

Delivery is through a simple REST API, and the site says it works with any language that can make HTTP requests. Official SDKs are listed for Python and Node.js, with Go marked as coming soon, and the page also names cURL, Java, .NET, PHP, and Ruby. Rendershot also provides an MCP server package, @rendershot/mcp-server, for use with Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and other MCP-compatible AI agents, as well as Zapier support for capture_screenshot, capture_pdf, and a new_render trigger.

A free plan is available with 200 renders per month and no credit card required. The pricing and FAQ text also notes that users who exceed their limit receive a 402 response and can upgrade from the dashboard. The page presents Rendershot as a developer-oriented API service, with open-source SDKs and links to product, docs, pricing, blog, contact, privacy, and terms pages.
