RED CARPET SUBSCRIPTION UPDATE VOL. 3 2025
The latest update to our signature Red Carpet Subscription is now available! This release introduces a new AI integration library, new components for near-field communication technology, expanded support for advanced PDF features, new cloud spreadsheet integration components, and more:
MCP SDK [Beta]

MCP SDK is a new component suite that simplifies the process of building MCP servers and clients. MCP SDK enables seamless, two-way communication between LLMs and your code, data, and apps. MCP servers built with MCP SDK enhance LLM reasoning through custom context and enable them to run custom code.

Please see our MCP SDK Getting Started Guide to learn more.

IPWorks NFC [Beta]

IPWorks NFC makes it easy to add NFC capabilities to your mobile applications on Android and iOS. IPWorks NFC provides a unified API for reading and writing NDEF records and accessing tag metadata, with support for all major NFC Forum tag types and technologies.

Our NFC Getting Started Guides for Android and iOS provide additional information on how the components can be used.

Secure PDF

Secure PDF is the easiest way for developers to implement strong PDF security in their applications. Secure PDF supports all major encryption and signing protocols, including PDF-specific algorithms like Basic Adobe Signatures and all levels of PAdES. The library's streamlined API provides the most developer-friendly way to sign, verify, encrypt, and decrypt PDFs in code.

The toolkit now also supports automating PDF form filling and creation via the new PDFForm component and editing existing PDFs using the new PDFEdit component. New support for PDF/A expands usage in PDF archiving and business integration scenarios.

Cloud Sheets

Cloud Sheets is a new component library for managing and manipulating cloud-based spreadsheets like Excel 365 and Google Sheets directly in your applications. Simplify your integration with spreadsheets by easily creating worksheets, updating data, using functions, and other advanced features.

More information can be found in our Getting Started Guide.

PKI Agent

PKI Agent is a new tool for enabling in-browser digital signatures using system certificates. PKI Agent runs outside the browser sandbox to access system keys, then communicates with browsers via a simple REST API. With PKI Agent, you can add support for cryptographically signing PDFs, documents, or any arbitrary data to your web applications.

Please see our Getting Started Guide to learn more.

Additional Updates

Additional updates and enhancements in this release include:

  • The HTTP-based server components in SecureBlackbox now support OAuth authorization.
  • SecureBlackbox CAdES, XAdES, and JAdES components have been updated with support for ML-DSA certificates and large scale performance improvements.
