Getting Started
https://app.printercow.com/api
This is the base URL for the print API. All requests should be made to this URL.
API Reference
Submit raw data for printing. The AI model will automatically figure out how to fill the template. If not template is provided at all it will choose the best one. Whyt GET request? Because most LLMs are able to make a simple GET request as function call. Soon your voice assistant can just print stuff for you.
