MochiPDF
Turn HTML into PDFs or screenshots from your agent using a hosted render API with API-key auth.
Overview
MochiPDF is an MCP server for the Build phase that converts HTML to PDFs and captures screenshots through a remote API with API-key and OAuth authentication.
What is this MCP server?
- Remote MCP at mochipdf.com/mcp (streamable HTTP, registry version 3.1.0)
- HTML-to-PDF conversion and screenshot capture via MCP tools
- Authentication via required X-API-Key header (secret) on remote connection
- OAuth and API-key auth paths described for the hosted service
- GitHub repository cbolgiano/mochipdf for server implementation reference
- Remote endpoint https://mochipdf.com/mcp
- Required header X-API-Key documented in registry remotes
What problem does it solve?
Maintaining headless browser PDF pipelines steals time from feature work and breaks CI when Chrome versions shift.
Who is it for?
Indie SaaS builders who need dependable HTML PDF or screenshot generation via MCP without self-hosting Chromium.
Skip if: Projects that require fully offline, air-gapped rendering or zero third-party API dependency.
What do I get? / Deliverables
Your agent calls MochiPDF to return PDFs or images from HTML strings or URLs so you ship export features faster.
- PDF files generated from supplied HTML
- Screenshot images captured from rendered pages
Recommended MCP Servers
Journey fit
Product teams embed document export and shareable previews while building features, not during initial market research. Integrations is the right shelf for wiring a third-party render service into apps, reports, and onboarding emails.
How it compares
Hosted render MCP integration, not a local CLI screenshot skill.
