e-Signatures
Send legally binding e-signature requests alongside your generated documents. From bulk signing to multi-party workflows, the full signing lifecycle is built in.
Legally Binding, Fully Audited
- Bulk signing — generate documents and send each to a different signer in a single job
- ESIGN & UETA compliant — meets US legal and security standards for electronic signatures
- Multi-party signing — add as many signers as needed, each with their own signing link
- Signing order — control who signs first with sequential signing workflows
- Automatic completion emails — all parties receive the fully signed PDF the moment it is executed
- Audit trail — every signature is timestamped with an IP address record
Image Generation
Create image templates with dynamic placeholders, then generate hundreds of personalized images in a single batch job. Track progress in real time and download everything as a ZIP.
- Customizable image templates with text and data placeholders
- Bulk generation — swap in data and generate at scale
- Real-time job status tracking
- ZIP download for bulk image exports
Merge & Combine Files

- Merge up to 200 files per operation (each up to 20 MB)
- Output formats: PDF, Word (DOCX), and ePUB
- Drag to reorder files before merging
- Page break between merged documents (DOCX & ePUB)

Data Sources & AI OCR
Connect your data from anywhere — spreadsheets, databases, cloud apps, or scanned documents. ActiveMerge handles the ingestion so you can focus on the output.
Data Sources
- Upload from your device — Excel (.xlsx), CSV, JSON
- Google Sheets — connect directly to a sheet as your data source
- Notion — pull data from any Notion database
- Airtable — generate documents from your Airtable bases
AI-Powered OCR
- Upload an image or PDF containing text data
- AI extracts the text and structures it automatically
- Auto-generates the right field structure to merge directly into your document
- Ideal for scanned invoices, receipts, contracts, and forms
File Storage
- Cloud storage for all templates and generated documents
- Organize in folders with rename, move, and delete
- Save generated documents directly to your storage after generation
Workflows, Forms & Automations
Chain your templates into reusable pipelines, expose them as public forms, and trigger them automatically.
Workflows
Combine multiple templates into a single reusable workflow. Enable a public form, trigger via API, or fire from an automation. Generate all output documents in one job.
Forms
Generate a shareable public form link from any template or workflow. Collect input from respondents, generate the document automatically, and deliver it by email.
Automations
Build fully automated document generation pipelines. Trigger on a schedule, via an incoming webhook, or on demand. Push results to external systems via outgoing webhooks.
Email Campaigns
Generate a batch of personalized documents and send each one to the right recipient in a single campaign run. Connect your own email provider and track every delivery.
- Connect Gmail, Outlook, or SMTP via OAuth or credentials
- Personalized documents per recipient from one data source
- Track status: Draft, Queued, Sending, Paused, Completed, Failed
- Pause and resume campaigns without losing progress
- Preview and test send before launching to the full list
