Text extraction

Clean text from any PDF, scan or photo

When you need the words rather than specific fields, text mode reads every page, uses OCR where there is no text layer, and keeps the layout readable.

01The problem

Where the time goes today

  • Scanned PDFs where copy and paste returns nothing
  • Text that loses its layout and becomes one long line
  • Documents in Hindi or Tamil that common tools cannot read
  • Large batches that need processing without manual work

02Checks

Verified before you use it

  • Uses the PDF's own text layer when it exists, which is exact and fast
  • Falls back to OCR page by page for scans and photos
  • Damaged or password-protected files are reported clearly
  • Same file received before (duplicate warning)

03What you get

Fields captured from every document

What you get

Text for every page, with page breaks kept · Layout-preserving output for tables and forms · Per-page note of whether the text layer or OCR was used · Download as .txt, or fetch through the API

General document fields (optional AI mode)

Title · Kind of document · Date · Short summary · Key facts as label and value pairs

04In the product

See exactly what was read and checked

Every value sits next to the original page, every check explains itself, and nothing reaches your systems until it passes or a person approves it.

05Workflow

How it runs day to day

Tip: send these documents to your workspace address with the .general alias so they skip auto-detection.
