Until today, SeguraDoc was a tool: you logged in, dragged a PDF onto the page, and got a safe copy back. That hasn't changed. What's new is that SeguraDoc is now also a service your code can call.

We've shipped the SeguraDoc API — a versioned REST surface that exposes the same sandboxed PDF pipeline used by the web app. You can now sanitize, OCR, and summarize untrusted PDFs from any backend, any script, any AI agent — programmatically.

What the API does

The API takes one input — an untrusted PDF — and returns four things:

A safe, reconstructed PDF with no active JavaScript, no embedded files, no launch actions, no forms
OCR text, per page, for image-based or scanned documents (powered by Mistral's ministral-14b vision model)
An AI-generated summary of the document's content (powered by Mistral's mistral-small)
A complete audit trail of every charge and every byte processed

Everything happens inside the same hardened sandbox the web app uses. The original PDF is deleted within an hour by default. Outputs are deleted after 24 hours unless you configure a different retention window for your organization.

Why this matters

Most teams handling user-uploaded PDFs today face the same problem: their app trusts the file enough to render it. If a customer or end-user uploads a malicious PDF, the application's preview pipeline becomes the attack surface.

The SeguraDoc API gives you a programmatic step you can put between user upload and rendering: send the file to us, get back an inert version, then show that to your users. Same idea for AI agents that automatically retrieve and ingest PDFs from the web — the agent receives only the sanitized output and OCR text, never the original.

A pay-as-you-go pricing model

Pricing is now USD-denominated and per-page:

$0.01 per page + $0.02 per document

A 1-page PDF costs $0.03. A 100-page PDF costs $1.02. Both AI features (OCR when needed, summary on every document) are bundled into that price — no separate metering, no token counting on your end. You see one charge per job in your ledger and one line item on your statement.

Top up your balance in any amount from $5 to $100 from the Usage & Balance page in your dashboard. Pay by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or cryptocurrency. Balance is valid for one year from purchase.

Built for AI agents: x402 support

This is the part we're most excited about.

The SeguraDoc API ships with first-class x402 support — the open protocol from Coinbase that lets AI agents pay for HTTP requests on-demand, without accounts.

An agent calls POST /v1/x402/documents, receives an HTTP 402 response describing the price bands, picks one, signs an EIP-3009 USDC transfer authorization, and retries the request. We verify the payment with the x402 facilitator, process the document, and return the safe PDF — all in a single round trip.

Three bands cover most use cases:

Small (up to 10 pages): $0.20
Medium (up to 50 pages): $0.75
Large (up to 150 pages): $2.00

For agents that don't know the page count up front, we also expose POST /v1/x402/quote — upload the file, get back the band that fits, then sign the right authorization. No funds move until processing actually starts.

If you've never integrated x402 before, the docs walk through it end-to-end.

What else shipped

The same release brings a number of changes for human users of the dashboard:

API keys — issue and revoke bearer tokens from a new API Keys page
Outbound webhooks — get notified when a job completes or fails, instead of polling. Signed payloads (HMAC-SHA256), BlockBee-style retry schedule (6 min → 12 min → 24 min), and a deliveries log you can inspect
Usage ledger — every top-up, charge, and adjustment recorded as an immutable entry you can read via API or browse in the dashboard
Per-organization retention — choose how long uploaded PDFs and processed outputs live before deletion. Defaults are aggressive (1 hour for originals, 24 hours for outputs); you can tighten or relax them per organization
Configurable rate limits on the unauthenticated x402 endpoints to keep them stable under bot traffic
Full developer documentation at /docs, including signature-verification code in Node.js, Python, and Go

How to get started

If you have an existing SeguraDoc account, you already have everything you need.

Open API Keys in your dashboard and create a new key
Add at least $5 of balance from Usage & Balance (signups also get a free starter balance)
Send your first request:

curl -X POST https://api.seguradoc.com/v1/documents \\
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_..." \\
  -F 'file=@your-document.pdf'

You'll get back a job ID. Poll the status, register a webhook for completion notifications, or both. The Quickstart walks through the full happy path in five commands.

If you don't have an account yet, sign up — new accounts get $1.00 of free balance, enough to process about 100 pages while you evaluate.

The web app you've been using isn't going anywhere. Same secure pipeline, same per-page pricing, now reachable from your code too.
