Iteration Layer

Stop copying data from PDFs into spreadsheets by hand

Your team spends hours on repetitive tasks: extracting data from invoices, resizing images for every platform, generating reports from raw data. These workflows should run themselves.

One output feeds the next

APIs that cover every step of your content pipeline — ingestion, transformation, and generation. One key, one credit pool, and structured JSON responses designed to chain together.

Fits into your existing stack

Native SDKs for Node, Python, and Go. OpenAPI spec for everything else. MCP server for AI agents and Claude Code skills. n8n community node for visual workflows.

Mix and match freely

Extract data from a document, generate visuals from the results, then compile everything into a finished report. Mix, match, and build your own pipeline.

You're dealing with this every day

Here's what changes when you stop juggling tools and start building pipelines.

Same tasks, every week

Renaming and resizing images, copying data from PDFs into spreadsheets, generating monthly reports — the same tasks, every week, by hand.

Set it and forget it

Clean API inputs, predictable JSON outputs. Build an automation once in n8n or a simple script, and it runs unattended — no babysitting.

Automation gaps

Your automation platform handles basic file operations, but real document intelligence or image manipulation requires wiring in separate services with separate rate limits.

Full pipeline, one platform

Extract invoice data, generate a summary report, create a thumbnail for the archive — all from one account, one credit pool, no middleware.

Enterprise price tags

The tools that could automate your workflows are priced for enterprise budgets. You need something that delivers ROI at your scale.

Clear ROI from day one

Predictable per-credit pricing you can show your manager. Process ~100 documents a month for the cost of one team lunch.

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.

One n8n node for your entire pipeline

Most n8n document workflows chain three or four separate services. The Iteration Layer community node covers extraction, transformation, and generation in a single install — wire up multi-step pipelines visually instead of writing glue code.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to write code?
Not necessarily. Our n8n community node lets you build visual workflows with drag-and-drop. For simple automations, a few API calls from any scripting tool work fine.
What automation platforms do you integrate with?
We have an official n8n community node. For Make, Zapier, or any other platform, use our REST API directly — clean JSON inputs and outputs work with any HTTP-capable tool.
Can I combine multiple files in one request?
Yes. Document Extraction accepts up to 20 input files per request and returns a single structured JSON result — useful when related documents need to be processed together, like a multi-page contract split across files.
How does pricing work for automations?
Each API call costs a fixed number of credits. Credits are shared across all operations, so your invoice processing and image resizing come from the same pool. No per-service billing. See Credits & Pricing.
Can I set spending limits?
Yes. Set per-project budget caps to limit how many credits any single automation can consume per billing period. This prevents runaway usage from a misconfigured workflow.
What if my automation runs overnight and something fails?
Credits are automatically refunded on server errors. Async webhook processing notifies your system on completion or failure, so your automation can handle retries gracefully. See Errors.
Is my data safe?
All processing runs on EU infrastructure. Files are processed in memory and never stored. We comply with GDPR by design.
What security and compliance documentation do you provide?
We provide a Data Processing Agreement, a detailed Security page covering our infrastructure, encryption, and data handling practices, and a Privacy Policy.
