Pick MintRender when

  • You want signed links: Abyssale's dynamic image URLs are public, with no signature.

Credit rules

Abyssale

  • One static image (JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF or web PDF) = 1 credit; animated MP4, GIF and HTML5 = 1 credit a second. source
  • Plans are per seat, each seat with its own credits; extra generation credits cost $0.01 each and do not expire. source
  • The Start plan ($15 a seat) has no API, so the table starts at Pro. source
  • Each new dynamic image URL costs 1 credit, then comes from the cache. source

MintRender

  • One image or one PDF page costs one credit, for every template and every format.
  • If you send the same template and data again, you get the stored file for free. Previews, test keys and failed renders also cost nothing.
  • Extra credits are off until you turn them on, and you set a monthly spending limit. Unused credits do not carry over.

  • Each element becomes one field in data: payload or image_url is the value. template_format_name becomes a size name (sizes) when the template has more sizes.
  • Both answer with the file's URL.
