Quickstart
Three ways to capture a PDF — the convert form, the REST API, and an inline curl one-liner.
1. From the browser
Go to pdfshot.deepsyte.com/convert, paste a URL, and hit Convert. The PDF lands in your dashboard within a few seconds. You don't need an account to try it — anonymous users get 3 PDFs per day per IP address.
If you sign up for free, the IP quota goes away (you get a per-account quota instead) and your captures are saved to your dashboard permanently.
2. From the dashboard
Once signed in, pdfshot.deepsyte.com/dashboard is your permanent library:
- Real PDF thumbnails (page 1) on every card.
- AI-derived tags (e.g.
documentation,e-commerce). - Download / Share / Embed actions per capture.
- Cursor-paginated history.
3. From the API
curl -X POST https://api.deepsyte.com/v1/screenshot \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $DEEPSYTE_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"url": "https://example.com",
"pdf": true,
"fullPage": true
}'You get back a screenshotId immediately. Poll
GET /v1/screenshot/:id or stream it via SSE on
GET /v1/screenshot/:id/stream until status === "done", then download from
publicUrl.
The full REST surface lives at REST API. To get a callback instead of polling, see Webhooks.
