Automation builders do not need another isolated feature API. They need supplier invoices, CMR waybills, delivery notes, product images, generated deliverables, spreadsheet outputs, and review branches to fit cleanly into n8n, Make, Zapier, scripts, and internal workflow systems.
Zero data retention
Made & hosted in the EU
100 trial credits
One output feeds the next
APIs that cover every step of EU content workflows — ingestion, transformation, generation, and exports. One key, one credit pool, and structured JSON responses designed to chain together.
Extract inputs
Turn documents, websites, and other sources into structured output.
Native SDKs for TypeScript, Python, and Go. OpenAPI spec for everything else. MCP server for AI agents and Claude Code skills. n8n integration for visual workflows.
EU AI workflow runtime
Run document, image, and file steps through one EU-hosted workflow layer with shared API conventions and billing.
You're dealing with this every day
Here's what changes when you stop juggling tools and start building pipelines.
File movement is not file processing
Automation platforms can move uploads between apps, but VAT invoice extraction, CMR data capture, image cleanup, report generation, and spreadsheet output usually require separate services at every step.
Built for workflow tools
Use the n8n community node when you want visual building, or call the REST API directly from Make, Zapier, shell scripts, cron jobs, and internal automation services.
Pipelines break at service boundaries
One API returns a blob, another expects JSON, a third has its own retry behavior. Every handoff adds mapping logic, error paths, and brittle workflow branches.
Predictable JSON between steps
Extraction, transformation, and generation APIs return structured outputs that are meant to feed the next workflow step, not just a download link you need to parse manually.
Cost is hard to forecast
OCR, PDF generation, image processing, and spreadsheet tools each bill differently. That makes template pricing, client estimates, and internal automation budgets harder to explain.
Extract, transform, generate
Combine document extraction, document-to-markdown, website extraction, image transformation, document generation, image generation, and sheet generation from one account.
Real-world pipelines, ready to ship
Each recipe chains multiple APIs into a complete workflow. Pick one, tweak it, and deploy — or use it as a starting point for your own pipeline.
Most document automations chain three or four separate services. Iteration Layer covers extraction, transformation, and generation in one place, and the n8n integration lets you wire those multi-step workflows visually instead of writing glue code.
Your data is processed on EU-hosted infrastructure and never stored beyond temporary logs. Zero data retention, GDPR-compliant workflows, and a Data Processing Agreement are available for every customer.

EU-hosted core processing
Application and processing infrastructure runs in Europe, with provider-scope ISO 27001 and BSI C5 evidence documented for procurement reviews.
Zero data retention
Customer files and processing results are not stored after the request. Usage logs are retained for 90 days and automatically deleted.
Clear answers for security teams
Give reviewers the answers they need up front: where files are processed, what is retained, which subprocessors are involved, and how AI inputs, outputs, review gates, and audit records move through each workflow.
How is this different from the Operations Teams page?
Operations Teams focuses on the business owner of repetitive work. This page is for the person building the pipeline: workflow consultants, ops engineers, technical operators, and automation builders evaluating how an API fits into n8n, Make, Zapier, scripts, or internal systems.
Yes. Every operation is available over REST with predictable JSON inputs and outputs, so any automation tool that can make HTTP requests can call Iteration Layer.
What can I chain in one workflow?
A workflow can extract supplier VAT IDs and IBANs, convert supporting documents to Markdown, resize attached product images, generate an approval PDF, and write DATEV-ready rows to an XLSX file while using one API key and one credit pool.
How do async workflows work?
Use webhook processing for longer jobs. Iteration Layer processes the request and notifies your automation endpoint on completion or failure, so unattended workflows can continue reliably.
How does pricing work across mixed workflow steps?
Each operation consumes credits from one shared pool. Document extraction, image transformation, generated PDFs, and spreadsheet exports do not require separate products or invoices. See Credits & Pricing.
