Eledo
Eledo is a document automation platform for generating PDF documents from templates and structured data.
It is designed for developers and teams who want reliable document generation without maintaining their own rendering infrastructure.
Core concept
Eledo is based on a simple model:
- Template — defines layout and logic
- Input data — provides values
- Output PDF — generated document
Everything in the system builds on this foundation.
How it is used
Eledo supports two primary usage patterns:
Template Editor
- design document layout
- define dynamic content using expressions
- build reusable templates
API and integrations
- generate documents programmatically
- integrate with existing systems
- automate workflows
Design principles
Eledo follows a few key principles:
- Clear APIs over hidden behavior
- Automation over manual work
- Deterministic output over implicit logic
- Integrations over closed ecosystems
What Eledo is not
Eledo is not:
- a document editor with manual workflows
- a storage system for generated files
- a full document management platform
Its focus is generation and automation, not lifecycle management.
Where to start
- Learn how templates work → Template Editor
- Explore components → Components
- Understand expressions → Data Expressions
- Integrate via API → API
