Why Automate Invoice Generation?

Manually creating invoices is tedious, error-prone, and doesn't scale. Whether you're a freelancer billing multiple clients or a SaaS company processing thousands of monthly invoices, automation saves hours of repetitive work.

With Templated, design your invoice template once with your branding, then generate personalized invoices automatically. Connect to your CRM, accounting software, or e-commerce platform — invoices are created and delivered instantly when orders are placed or services are completed.

How It Works

Three steps to automated invoice generation

  1. 1

    Design Your Invoice

    Start from our professional invoice templates or create your own. Add your company logo, payment details, terms, and branding.

  2. 2

    Connect Your Data

    Integrate with your CRM, accounting software, or e-commerce platform. Map client details, line items, and amounts to template fields.

  3. 3

    Generate & Send

    Automatically generate PDF invoices when orders are placed or billing cycles complete. Email them directly to clients or store for records.

What our customers say

People love how great our product works and how we're always there to help

Rated 4.7

"Business pressures now demand almost a 24x7 operation. The difference between choosing one SaaS product or another isn't just down to the technical capabilities of each, but down to their responsiveness when it doesn't quite work. In this case, an issue blocked us from being able to use the platform as intended. Within minutes of using the live chat, the issue was not only reproduced but correctly identified. Within the hour, the hot fix had been coded, tested and applied - unblocking the bottleneck and allowing us to carry on working. This is exceptional and the reason why I can't recommend this company enough - I'm so impressed and very grateful for their hard work. Keep it up!"

"We were looking for tools to help our users create and edit images with templates. We tried options like Canva, but Templated.io turned out to be the perfect choice for our product. It offers an easy API to render images, and its embed editor lets us provide our users with a full editing experience without having to create complex frontend components. It's a really great tool!"

"Brilliant piece of software. Reasonably priced (vs Canva's outrageously expensive API), and despite a few intricacies with the editor, a really fully-featured document generation API. Really great support too from Pedro, the founder!"

"Templated.io is basically a an API-first graphics content designer which makes it super easy to programmatically create document and image assets. It has most basic features and it is robust and "just works". The Make.com app really makes it super simple to incorporate into automation workflows. What sets templated.io apart the most is Pedro and his super fast and service minded, solutions oriented responses."
