Create

operation: "create" is the default operation. It needs one of prompt or content, and optionally format: docx (Word + PDF), pdf (PDF only), pptx (PowerPoint + PDF), xlsx (Excel + PDF) or artifact (a web page with its data). If you leave it out, Doconda infers it from your prompt. Inside a Word file or a PDF, Doconda decides on its own what kind of document it is (report, letter, contract, memo, minutes) and gives it its base layout: a contract gets a serif font, justified text and numbered clauses; a letter, no page numbers. When in doubt, a report. You don’t pick it: describe it in prompt and adjust the look with style.

With your files

{
  "format": "docx",
  "content": { "markdown": "# Leave request\n\nDear Ms. García: ..." },
  "style": "blue headings"
}

The Markdown supports headings, paragraphs, lists, tables, bold/italic, links, page breaks and images. The text is used as is.

{
  "format": "docx",
  "prompt": "Report on the housing law with blue headings, centred"
}

A model writes the content and understands the style requested in the same sentence.

{
  "format": "pdf",
  "prompt": "Summarise this in 2 pages",
  "sources": ["file_01JAB3..."]
}

Upload the files first with POST /files, or use a document Doconda already made by its id (doc_…). sources takes your documents (Word, PowerPoint, Excel, PDF, also .doc, .ppt and .xls, TXT or Markdown, up to 5) and your images (up to 10), together. Other ways to pass files.

How it’s made

The same for every format, the way a good professional works at their computer: an AI agent reads the format’s manual, writes a small program that builds the file, runs it in an isolated sandbox (no internet), checks it and, when something is wrong, fixes the program and runs it again (it never patches the file by hand). Then it delivers it and Doconda reviews it one last time.

`format`	How it builds it	How it checks it
`docx`, `pdf`	A docx-js program; the look goes in Word’s styles (Normal, Heading 1…), so the file stays editable. The PDF comes from that Word.	Word validator, our review and the pages turned into images.
`pptx`	With a template (the one Doconda picks from its library, or yours): it copies its slides, orders them and changes their text. Without one: a pptxgenjs program with its theme, named layouts and native charts; the theme is saved in the PowerPoint, so whatever you add later follows it. 16:9.	PowerPoint validator (against the template, if any) and the slides as images.
`xlsx`	An openpyxl program: real formulas (not copied numbers), assumptions in their own cells, `INDEX`/`MATCH` instead of `XLOOKUP` or `FILTER`. It tests two or three formulas before writing the rest.	Recalculates every formula until no error is left (`#REF!`, `#DIV/0!`…) and looks at the sheets.
`artifact`	A short design plan, a check of what the page can do (data in `doconda.db`, allowed libraries) and a single HTML with everything inside. See artifacts.	Screenshots on desktop and phone, and it fixes what looks wrong.

Everything stays editable: text, shapes, charts and formulas, not pictures.

{ "format": "pptx", "content": { "markdown": "# Q3 report\n\n## Sales\n\n- Up 12%\n\n| Month | Amount |\n|---|---|\n| July | €12,300 |" } }

Images

Word, PowerPoint and Excel can include images, yours or from the internet:

{
  "format": "docx",
  "prompt": "Report on the office refurbishment with the photos",
  "sources": ["file_presupuesto.pdf...", "file_foto1.jpg...", "file_foto2.jpg..."]
}

Yours: upload them with POST /files (PNG, JPEG, GIF or WebP) and pass them in sources, alongside your documents if any (up to 10 images). Doconda works out on its own what each file is: documents are material to write from, and images go inside the document, where they fit.
With your own Markdown, sources only holds images: place them on their own line with ![Caption](img:1) (img:1 is the first image in sources, img:2 the second…).
From the internet: the AI can search for an image when it adds something (a place, a product, a logo); in your Markdown, ![Caption](web:what to search for) or a direct link. The source goes in the caption and the report flags each one (image.web_source) so you can check you’re allowed to use it.
In Word they’re centred and fitted to the width, with their caption; in PowerPoint, next to the slide text; in Excel, beside the table.
If an image can’t be placed, the document still comes out and the report says so (image.unavailable).

Quality levels

quality sets how much effort goes into the file. The path is the same at every level (the one above); what changes is the model, how many steps the agent may take and how many times it looks at the pages. Each level has its own price (pricing).

`quality`	Model	Steps	Looks at the pages	Text checks
`fast`	fast	25	1	facts you didn’t give
`standard`	writer	40	2	+ quality, key data and reader test
`best`	the best available	60	4	+ quality, key data and reader test
`auto` (default)	Doconda picks the level your request needs. When in doubt, the cheaper one.

With auto, max_quality sets a cap: "max_quality": "standard" never goes above standard. The document says which level was used and why in quality (requested, level, reason), and the path in route (agent, or fast if the agent isn’t available). For example, “Presentation for investors” usually goes to best; “Draft minutes of the meeting”, to fast. If you ask for comments or tracked changes when you edit, or to use your template, auto picks best. If the agent can’t finish, Doconda makes it on its fast path (it writes the text and its engine lays it out), says so (agent.fallback) and, if it was best, charges it as standard. The quality.chosen, agent.step and agent.checked events show the progress.

Copy the design of a file

Put the file whose look you want to copy (a presentation, a Word, an Excel, a PDF or a picture) in sources and say it in the request: “with the design of our template”. Doconda tells which source is the design; the rest stays material for the content. The design.chosen event says which file it used.

A presentation for a presentation: the agent uses it as the template (copies its slides and fills them).
Any other pair (a reference Word, a PDF, a screenshot): the agent copies its fonts, colours, margins, header and footer, logo and cover.
At any level. If the agent couldn’t finish, the document gets its own design and the report says so (design.not_copied).

Options

string

A name to find it later (“Malasaña flat lease”, up to 200 characters). Also works for review, edit and read. Files download with that name (Malasana flat lease.docx).

object

Your own key-value pairs (each value up to 500 characters), returned as is.

Use ?dry_run=true to validate the request and the style without generating anything.

What Doconda understands and checks on its own

The format, if you don’t say. From a sentence (“a residential lease…”, “a presentation for the board…”) Doconda infers the format, the kind of document, the language and, for an artifact, whether its data is shared or per visitor. If the format isn’t clear, the document fails with format_unclear (and isn’t charged) instead of guessing. The request.understood event says what it understood (format and type) and how confident it is.
Sources with instructions for the AI. If a source tries to tell the AI to do something else, it isn’t followed and the report flags it (source.instructions).
Data you didn’t provide. Before delivering, the agent removes figures, dates and citations that aren’t in your request or your sources (or leaves a visible gap such as [DATA]). If one still slips through, the report flags it (content.unsupported_fact), so you can check it before sending it.
Legal citations. Articles, laws, regulations and rulings that don’t come from your request or your sources are flagged (content.unsupported_citation); if the AI isn’t sure, they’re left as information to check by hand (content.citation_to_review).
Harmful requests. Documents meant to deceive or cause harm (forgeries, impersonation, pages asking for passwords or cards) fail with request_refused and aren’t charged; if in doubt, they’re made and the report flags it (request.review).
The industry and its checklist. Doconda recognises the industry (legal, healthcare, accounting…) and the type of document within it, and writes following its guide; your instructions take precedence over it. When it’s done it checks the industry’s “before delivery” checklist: the quality.checked event gives a score from 0 to 100 and every item that isn’t met appears in the report (quality.check_failed).
Long sources. If your sources don’t fit in full, Doconda keeps the passages about what you’re asking for (source.selected says how much was used).
Key data. The report includes key_data: amounts, dates, tax IDs and IBANs in the document, with their role (main amount, signing date, due date…).
Reader test. Doconda imagines the questions a reader of the document will ask, and another AI, which only sees the document, tries to answer them. Whatever it can’t find appears in the report (content.unclear: “doesn’t give the start date”), as do internal contradictions (content.contradiction). Only when the AI writes the text.

The first three, in the regions where our judgment model is active (elsewhere, format is required). The reader test, in all of them.
