Questions
Do you store salary data?
The Security page states plainly what is stored and what we do not yet promise.
Can HR run it without engineers?
Yes, through a published form or the public n8n node — for lower volumes.
Is it free?
Yes. PixlDocs is free for 1 year from 3 October 2026 while we work with early users. You can try a real example with no account; a free account starts with 100 credits, and you can ask us for more free credits when you run out.
Try it on sample data, then bring your own document.
Start with the free example. If your document or data source is different, send us one sample and tell us where the data lives — we set up the first template with you, free. Business and enterprise teams can contact us separately.
