Common questions

Is Emboss safe?

It passed 4 of 5 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed yesterday, and the latest version (1.10.0) reached the registry yesterday.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT on the web (full MCP on Business and above; Pro read-only).

What can I use instead?

Emboss

Turn flat PDFs into fillable forms, fill them, and fax them, right from Claude.

What it does

Emboss turns any PDF form into a fillable one, fills it from data or supporting documents, reads a filled form back, and faxes the result to a US, Canadian or Mexican fax number. Everything runs through the Emboss API, so results depend on what you send it and how the source document is structured.

Install in Claude Code

/plugin marketplace add GetEmboss-ai/emboss-claude-plugin

/plugin install emboss@getemboss

Then run /mcp and sign in to Emboss to connect your account.

Install in Claude.ai and Claude Desktop

Claude.ai and Claude Desktop connect to Emboss through the custom connector button rather than the plugin marketplace. See https://getemboss.ai/docs/claude for the setup steps. To give Claude the Emboss skill directly, download emboss-skill.zip and upload it as a skill.

Pricing

The first 5 form creations, 5 context fills, 5 standard fills, 5 checks, 5 read-backs and 5 packages each month are free; a job is free when it is 5 pages or fewer (a fill from documents counts the form and its documents together), and a longer job is charged without using a free one. See /pricing for full details.

Privacy

Only what you ask Claude to send to Emboss is sent. Once connected, Claude can see every form in your Emboss account and acts on them when you ask. See https://getemboss.ai/privacy for the full privacy policy.
