Frequently Asked Questions
Is Pictify a good Certifier alternative?
Yes, when what you need is branded certificates rendered and delivered reliably. Pictify renders from HTML templates you fully control and emails each certificate with per-recipient delivered/bounced status. If you need formal credential infrastructure (verification URLs, expiry, revocation), that is Certifier's specialty and worth its price.
How does Pictify pricing compare to Certifier?
Certifier's Professional plan is $79/mo and the next step up is $399/mo, a hard cliff if you outgrow the middle tier. Pictify starts free (50 renders, 25 emailed documents monthly), then $19, $49, $99, and $249 monthly tiers, so cost tracks usage instead of jumping 5x.
Does Pictify track delivery like Certifier does?
Pictify tracks per-recipient: sent, delivered, bounced, or complained, via its own sending domain webhooks. Bounced addresses are suppressed automatically and can be corrected and re-sent as a single row; no manual bounce spreadsheet.
Can Pictify do badges as well as certificates?
Yes: badges, certificates, tickets, place cards, reports, and personalized video all render from the same template engine and the same data contract. One event, one tool, one bill.
Does Pictify have an API on the free plan?
Yes. REST API, official SDKs (Node, Python, Ruby, Go), signed webhooks, and the MCP server are available on every plan, including free. Most credential platforms gate API access behind add-ons or top tiers.
