Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

Foliant renders Typst source into PDFs through an HTTP API, with an MCP server for AI clients and a browser demo.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-29 issue.

For: Developers generating PDFs from Typst source
Worth noticing: The demo allows three renders daily without an account; the free API key tier lists 300 pages each month.

Field notes

The homepage includes editable Typst source for a sample certificate and identifies the demo as the production endpoint with a lower page limit. It says bundled fonts are available and that custom TTF or OTF files can be attached. The page describes tagged structure as the default for PDF output, with PNG and SVG available for single pages.
