Bannerbear

What it does

Bannerbear is an API for automated image, video and PDF generation. It renders branded templates that you can modify through the API or AI agents. It also connects to tools like Airtable, Notion, WordPress and Zapier.

Bannerbear fits teams that need to produce many branded images, videos or PDFs without designing each one by hand. You design a template in the editor or take one from the library, then trigger renders through the REST API, AI agents or no-code integrations. The pricing page explains credits in detail. One image render is one credit, multiplied by the number of formats and the scale. Animations cost two credits per second of output, rounded up, and rendering at 60fps doubles that cost. AI features add one credit per layer that uses them. Tools cost between one and four credits depending on the work involved. A free trial gives 30 API credits with no credit card required. Paid plans start at $49 per month for 1,000 API credits and 200 AI credits. Check the credit costs for your exact workflow before committing, since format, scale, frame rate and AI layers all change the total.
