Extend

Extend.ai is a cloud platform for document processing that uses large language models to handle complex files like PDFs and scans. It extracts, classifies, and splits data with over 95 percent accuracy, enabling teams to automate workflows quickly.

Core features include the Extraction processor, which pulls specific fields from documents, and Classification, which sorts files by type. Splitting divides multi document uploads into individual items. The platform supports ingestion via file parsing into markdown for LLMs, and offers semantic chunking for better context preservation.

Evaluation Studio provides tools to benchmark performance on custom datasets. Workflow orchestration combines these into pipelines, with human in the loop review for oversight. Recent addition Composer, an AI agent, optimizes schemas autonomously to reach high accuracy in minutes.

Competitors such as Hyperscience emphasize enterprise compliance, but Extend.ai deploys faster for mid size teams. Ocrolus focuses on financial docs, yet Extend.ai covers broader types including handwriting and images. Pricing uses credit based tiers, starter at low volume, scaling to enterprise with custom options, generally more affordable for startups than rivals fixed plans.

Use cases span finance for invoice extraction, healthcare for patient forms, and logistics for bills of lading. Testimonials note replication of months work in weeks, with full automation after initial reviews. The platform integrates via APIs for low latency in product flows.

Teams report strong results on real world docs, outperforming open source and foundation models in bake offs. Built in validations ensure data quality, and continuous improvement incorporates user corrections.
