Changelog

2026-10-16

Auto top-up from the API and MCP: POST /v1/autotopup and the set_auto_topup tool turn it on or off after your first purchase, and you get an email about every change. GET /v1/credits and get_credits show the status.
Running-low and out-of-credits emails include a one-click payment link, and after a purchase the dashboard offers to turn on auto top-up.

402 insufficient_credits errors now include checkout_url, a ready payment link for a pack that fits your usage, also in the message, so an agent can hand it straight to you.
Updated the cookie policy and privacy policy: a new security cookie (hp_bid) helps prevent abuse of the free credits.
The 100 free credits are added when you confirm your email. POST /v1/signup still returns an API key right away, with credits: 0 and pending_credits: 100; conversions return 403 email_not_confirmed until the owner opens the emailed link.
A PDF with more pages than your remaining credits is no longer delivered and charged into a negative balance. You get a 402 insufficient_credits error with the page count and your balance, and nothing is charged.

The free converter and generators now ask for your email. The first time, you confirm it with one click and the PDF downloads right away; after that, conversions are instant. Your account comes with 100 free pages.
Choosing an HTML file now shows a preview of it before you convert.
