What it can do

ToolWhat it says it does
add_attachmentPrepare a form from documents: a proposal of every answer with its source, what is missing, and where documents disagree, before writing, plus attachments for a package. Attach one document (file_url: public https link, or file_base64) to a proposal from prepare_form. PDF, PNG and JPEG only, at…
commit_proposalWrite or confirm the answers, render the form with text that fits, check it, and return the PDF with a report and a receipt, or one submission package. Give the proposal_id from prepare_form; confirm is a list of field ids whose proposed value is accepted as it is (the ids get_proposal lists under…
compose_pdfFree. Build one PDF from pages of several artifacts, in the order and rotation you name. Build one PDF from several artifacts: sources is a list of {artifact_id, pages, rotate}; pages is a selection like 1-3,7 (omit for every page), rotate is 90, 180 or 270. Returns the new artifact_id and a…
create_formTurn a flat or scanned PDF form into a fillable PDF with detected fields. Upload a PDF (pdf_url: public https link, or pdf_base64) and detect its fields. Returns when detection finishes (usually under two minutes). Give library=<slug> from find_form to start from a form Emboss already keeps…
delete_formPermanently removes a form and its PDFs from the user's library. Pass dry_run=true to rehearse this call without doing it: nothing is stored, charged or sent, and no AI is used. The answer says whether the real call would succeed or be refused, what it would cost, and what a rehearsal cannot…
delete_pagesFree. Remove the pages you name from a PDF and keep the rest in order. Remove the pages named in pages (1-based, like 1-2,17) from artifact_id; every other page stays in order. Returns the new artifact_id and a download_url (a link that works for about an hour).
extract_pagesFree. Keep only the pages you name from a PDF, in the order you name them. Keep only the pages named in pages (1-based, like 2,5-9, repeats and any order allowed) from artifact_id. Returns the new artifact_id and a download_url (a link that works for about an hour).
fill_batchFill one copy of a PDF form for every row of a spreadsheet. Fill a form for every row of a CSV (csv_text or csv_url, up to 1000 rows). mapping is {column: field_id}; omit it to use the suggested mapping. If mapping is omitted, suggest_mapping runs first and is billed as one context fill. Batches…
fill_formFill a PDF form from structured data such as JSON or key-value answers. Fill a ready form with values keyed by field id or field label. Checkboxes take yes or no; choice fields need one of their options. To lock the filled PDF, call flatten_pdf with its artifact_id; fill_form itself never…
fill_form_from_contextFill a PDF form using facts found in supporting documents. Emboss reads the answers out of context_text and/or context_urls (public https links to PDFs, Word, spreadsheets, images, or text) and fills the form. Give form_id for a form already in the library, or pdf_url/pdf_base64 for a new one…
find_formFind a blank government form in the Emboss library by name or number, ready to fill. Search the library of blank US federal forms by name, number or alias (w9, W-9, form w 9 and taxpayer identification all find the same form). Returns each match's slug, title, agency, revision and page count. Send…
flatten_pdfFree. Lock a filled form: draw every field's value and every comment into the page so nothing can be edited. Lock artifact_id, usually the filled PDF from fill_form: every field's value, checkbox and comment becomes part of the page, no fields stay editable, links keep working, and the original…
get_batchProgress of a fill_batch run with a download link per finished row (100 at a time; pass next_cursor as cursor for the next 100) and a zip link when done.
get_faxDelivery status and receipt of a send_fax job. status is queued, working, delivered, failed or expired; keep checking about every 20 seconds until it is delivered, failed or expired. A busy, unanswered or dropped call is retried automatically up to three more times over about 17 minutes while the…
get_formStatus of one form. When ready, returns every field (id, label, kind, options, required) and a download link for the fillable PDF.
get_jobStatus of a fill_form_from_context, prepare_form, or commit_proposal job. When ready, returns the download link, how many fields were filled, and for a commit, the result, receipt_url and, when one was asked for, package_url.
get_proposalPrepare a form from documents: a proposal of every answer with its source, what is missing, and where documents disagree, before writing, plus attachments for a package. Read a proposal by its proposal_id: every field's state, its candidate values with evidence, and the questions still open. No…
get_usageThis month's usage and how many free operations remain, plus the billing page link. It also says whether a payment method is on file (payment_method_on_file) and whether the account can send a fax today (fax_ready). Faxes need a payment method: check fax_ready before send_fax.
inspect_pdfFree. Report a PDF's structure: page count, page sizes and rotations, encryption, form fields, annotations. Structural facts about artifact_id: page count, page sizes and rotations, whether it is encrypted, has form fields, annotations, outlines, embedded files or JavaScript. No text, no field…
list_formsForms in the user's Emboss library. state: ready (default), processing, failed, or all. Paginate with cursor.
merge_pdfFree. Join whole PDFs into one file in the order given. Join whole PDFs in order: sources is a list of {artifact_id}. Returns the new artifact_id and a download_url (a link that works for about an hour). For page selections use compose_pdf.
prepare_formPrepare a form from documents: a proposal of every answer with its source, what is missing, and where documents disagree, before writing, plus attachments for a package. Same inputs as fill_form_from_context (form_id for a form already in the library, or pdf_url/pdf_base64 for a new one, plus…
read_formRead the values out of a filled PDF form, labelled by field, with a completeness verdict when the form is known. Give the filled PDF (pdf_url: public https link, or pdf_base64) and, when you know it, form_id. Returns every form box in the file with its value and whether it is filled; when the form…
reorder_pagesFree. Put a PDF's pages in a new order you give, every page exactly once. Reorder artifact_id's pages: order lists every page number exactly once, in the new order. Returns the new artifact_id and a download_url (a link that works for about an hour).
rotate_pagesFree. Rotate the pages you name by 90, 180 or 270 degrees. Rotate pages of artifact_id: rotations is a list of {pages, degrees} with degrees 90, 180 or 270, added clockwise to each page's current rotation. Returns the new artifact_id and a download_url (a link that works for about an hour).
send_faxSend a PDF to a fax number and track delivery, priced per transmitted page. Give a destination in E.164 form (for example +15025551212; US, Canadian and Mexican numbers only) and the PDF: an artifact_id from any earlier result, a job_id from fill_form_from_context or commit_proposal once get_job…
suggest_mappingPropose which spreadsheet columns fill which PDF form fields. Given a CSV (csv_text or csv_url), proposes which column fills which field. Only the header row matters. Billed as one context fill (5 free each month). Pass dry_run=true to rehearse this call without doing it: nothing is stored…
verify_formCheck a filled form: required fields, allowed options, consistent choices, text that fits, empty signature boxes; returns complete, review required or incomplete. Give a form_id and the filled PDF (pdf_url: public https link, or pdf_base64). Billed as one verify; the first 5 each month are free…

In its maker's words

Make any PDF form fillable, fill it from data or documents, read it back, and fax the result.
