Shields is probably the most widely used badge generation service. Another is Badgen. Shields has a larger variety with support for a wider variety of services, etc, but Badgen has a good variety as well, along with a few that Shields doesn't yet have. Most of these are dynamic badges, updating relevant information as things change (e.g., with new release version, build status, coverage percentage, etc). And both support both dynamic and static custom badges.

  Coverage badges, and pull request coverage checks, from JaCoCo reports in GitHub Actions

In some cases, there may be tools that you can run yourself as part of your CI/CD workflows. For example, last week I posted about the jacoco-badge-generator, which can be used as either a GitHub Action or as a local CLI tool to parse a JaCoCo coverage report, generate coverage badges, as well as for performing PR checks. Here is a link to that DEV.to post:
