Automate Website Screenshots

Financial applications need immutable copies of trade confirmations, order books, swap quotes, or K‑line charts for regulators and SOC 2 audits.

Immutable trade confirmations for compliance‑first Fin‑tech apps

Regulators, auditors, and SOC 2 reviewers all ask for the same thing: unchangeable evidence of what really happened on your trading platform. Every filled order, K‑line candle, swap quote, or depth‑of‑book snapshot needs to live forever in a format nobody can edit later. Screenshots are nice for a quick look, but PDFs are safer—self‑contained, hard to tamper with, and easy to sign or hash.

How ScreenshotOne can help?

ScreenshotOne’s PDF API fits the job perfectly:

  • Any source, one call. Pass a live URL or raw HTML and get back a pixel‑perfect PDF of the chart, order book, or confirmation screen—no headless browser to maintain.
  • Immutable by design. Store the PDF as‑is, add a SHA‑256 hash to your ledger, and you’ve got write‑once proof that satisfies SOC 2 control CC7 and most securities‑law retention rules.
  • Scales with the market. Whether you’re capturing one trade per minute or thousands per second during a crypto surge, the API queues and streams PDFs without throttling your app.

Quick start

Terminal window
curl https://api.screenshotone.com/take \
-d access_key=<your access key> \
-d url=https://example.com/receipt \
-d format=pdf \

The call above grabs the trade‑receipt page, bakes it into an PDF with all CSS intact, and returns it.

Next step: Plug the PDF URL or hash into your audit log table, and you’re done—immutable evidence on tap for every trade your platform ever executes.

Compared to the tool I used before ScreenshotOne's image generation is very quick. Even the full-page screenshot only takes a couple of seconds.

I love the URL signing feature! It allows me to use a serverless stack without exposing the API key.

If you need a screenshot API, ScreenshotOne is the way to go!
