Generate programmatically
Compose templates with Python loops, f-strings, or AI-generated formulas instead of manually writing HTML or spreadsheet APIs.
Why TenTags?
TenTags is built for programs and AI agents, not manual editing. It makes dynamic table and document generation simple, readable, and reliable.
Multiple output targets
Compile the same template to HTML, Excel (.xlsx), or PDF with a unified intermediate representation.
Rich styling support
Use inline tags for font size, colors, alignment, merges, and background fills.
AI-friendly DSL
Compact syntax reduces hallucination risk when generating tables from large language models.
