Three verbs, one API
Everything Fylane does is convert, compress or extract. Every one of them returns a job rather than a response body, so a slow file is a slow job and never a timeout.
What you can ask for
Convert
Move a file from one format to another without owning a toolchain.
- HEIC → WebP or JPEG
- DOCX, XLSX, PPTX → PDF
- PDF → Markdown
- SVG → PNG
Compress
Re-encode against a size budget instead of a quality guess.
- Resize to fit a bounding box
- Target a byte ceiling, not a quality number
- Strip metadata on request
- Linearise and shrink PDFs
Extract
Get the content out, including from scans.
- Text and structure from PDF and Office
- OCR for scanned pages
- Embedded images and attachments
- Format, dimensions, page count, metadata
Latency classes, not a single average
A thumbnail and a hundred-page OCR run do not belong in the same queue. Each job is routed by the work it actually implies, so a long job never sits in front of a short one.
| Class | Target p95 | Typical work |
|---|---|---|
fast | under 2 seconds | Thumbnails, resizes, format conversion, inspection. |
standard | under 60 seconds | Office to PDF, PDF operations, short OCR jobs. |
heavy | minutes | Hundred-page OCR, large extraction runs. |
