@rviolleau In response to your review of Enpose... The price is definitely a work in progress. What do you think would be a fair price? Or what would you like to see in the product to better justify the price-point I've gone for? Unfortunately, I don't have the resources to run a system like this completely free so that's really not a viable option.
That being said, I'm planning to launch a kind-of free tier in the next few weeks based on an invite system. For example, if you were to invite one friend, each of you will get an extra 20 screenshots per day. That'd then allow you to capture 20 screenshots per day for absolutely nothing, or 220 on the basic plan and 1020 on the premium plan.

@mrjeremyblaze I find your pricing very fair given what others charge (starting at 5x your basic plan).
I paid 6 months worth of your service + my own time to come up with my own solution based on headless chrome; add monthly heroku service charges + maintenance and I can see how it’s totally worth switching over to enpose.
Just yesterday I came across this interesting read, which I recommend:

All the best!
@andreaspizsa Hey Andreas, thanks heaps for the support! Let me know if there's anything else you'd like to see in Enpose... new features, better documentation – anything! I'm always keen to hear feedback.
Thanks for the article link. Reading now! 🙌

@mrjeremyblaze Your free plan based on an invite system is a good idea
Enpose is a super simple website screenshot API. I originally made this for my own use but I quickly started to use it on heaps of my own sites and found it to be so useful I thought it should be made public!
It works entirely through a link. All you do to get a screenshot is call one... like this:
(that's an actual Enpose-generated screenshot right there 👆)
Enpose will then handle all the other stuff like caching and of course taking the actual screenshot. There are heaps options that can be set too. See exactly how it all works here.
Hopefully some people find Enpose useful. It's still sort of in beta... I'm still working out some kinks, but for all intents and purposes it's ready to use!
It's FREE for 14 days, so go give it a try and I'd ❤️ to hear any feedback.

@mrjeremyblaze what is used for rendering the screenshots? Also, looking at the embedded screenshot above, it doesn't look like it has rendered your own homepage all that well? Or is that just my impression?

@kewlking Hey Chintamani. Try those links now and it should be working fine! For security, and to prevent other people abusing your account you need to add in any sites you wish to screenshot on https://enpose.co/dash. I've added youtube.com in for you and it seems to be working fine! I'll add onto my list to better explain this in the error message.

@mrjeremyblaze so it does!! thanks so much for following up, Jeremy.
@reneprioux After that no, you can't take any more screenshots. I have plans for something similar to a free tier where you can invite friends and each get a bonus 20 screenshots per day – that's still probably a week off being ready though

@mrjeremyblaze I mean "you can try it for free after you register", right? And I am saying it would be helpful to take a few screenshots (watermarked, no problem) BEFORE I register. So that I can see how it works. But hey, good job anyway!
@diego_iglesias Hey Diego, one of the main uses is for dynamic image generation for social media marketing... in other words, Open Graph images. I’ve got a page up with a little bit of info about this here https://enpose.co/social-media-m...
Does it render emojis before taking a screenshot? Does it account for fade-in effects upon page load by adding a small delay before taking the screenshot?
@ashfame Hey Ashish! I'll have to check into the emoji question. I'm not actually sure. There are two options which can be used to control delays. You can add ?delay=5 to the screenshot URL to add a 5 second delay, or you can add ?wait=true and Enpose will delay the screenshot capture until it thinks the page is fully loaded.
