I built an API to finally generate PDF & Office files with Bubble — How should I price it?

Questions
1

One of the most frustrating limitations in Bubble is the inability to generate PDFs or Office files natively.

To solve this, I built and currently run my own API. :rocket:

Here’s what it can do:

  • Works with Word, Excel, and PowerPoint

  • Insert text, images, and repeated text (loops) into templates

  • Keeps all existing images, graphs, and formulas intact

  • Returns results as PDF, images, or updated Word/Excel/PowerPoint files

Unlike traditional tools like docmaker, you don’t need to deal with JSON.

You simply specify the replacement content as plain text — no formatting hassle, no complex setup.

:sparkles: In short, it’s a simple yet powerful way to handle file generation directly from Bubble.

Now, I’d love to share this service with fellow Bubblers.

:backhand_index_pointing_right: The question is: how should I price it?

(e.g., monthly subscription, pay-per-use, usage tiers, etc.)

Your opinions would mean a lot to me. Thanks in advance for your feedback! :folded_hands:

monthly subscription if you want to make more value for yourself, or usage tiers. pay per use if you want user to benefit in regards to paying only for what they need.
