RenderKit vs ApiFlash

ApiFlash is a Chromium-backed screenshot API with PDF output. RenderKit covers the same capture surface, then adds LLM-ready markdown extraction, a built-in MCP server, and JSX-to-PDF — all on one billing meter.

Why teams switch from ApiFlash

Markdown extraction with token-aware chunking ApiFlash doesn't offer

MCP server: screenshot, pdf, and extract as native agent tools

JSX-to-PDF for component-native documents

One meter for three primitives instead of capture-only

Common questions

Yes — full page, element selector, custom viewport, device scale, ad/cookie-banner blocking, and caching are all covered, plus PDF and markdown on the same key.

Both are JSON APIs. Swap the base URL and access-key header, map a few parameter names, and you're rendering.
