Continue to About ↓- What it does
- Bannerbear is a template-based, API-first service for generating branded images, PDFs, animated clips and videos at scale.
More detail
- A designer builds a template in Bannerbear's editor or imports one from Figma, then developers or no-code tools fill it with data through the REST API, SDKs, MCP for AI agents, or integrations like Zapier and Airtable.
- Best for
- Developers, marketing teams and enterprises that need programmatic, template-driven image, PDF, animation and video generation at volume, including multi-region ad variants, personalised client content and article-to-video assets.
More detail
- No-code marketers and AI-agent users can also drive branded generation through Zapier, Airtable and MCP.
- Pricing
- Credit-based subscription billed monthly: Automate $49/mo (1,000 API credits, 200 AI credits), Scale $149/mo (10,000 API credits, 600 AI credits), Enterprise $299/mo (50,000 API credits, 1,250 AI credits)
More detail
- Scale and Enterprise allow scaling credits up to 1,000,000 or 2,000,000 per month respectively
- Main limitation
- Teams looking for a general-purpose design suite rather than a template-and-API engine.
More detail
- Very low-volume casual users may find the $49/mo minimum paid tier and capped free trial poor value, and very long multi-page PDF jobs are limited to 50 URLs per merge.
