Document Processing

Turn PDFs and office documents into searchable, structured and automation-ready outputs.

Document processing follows the same infrastructure model as image and video: a file enters, a pipeline runs, outputs are produced, metadata is generated, and events are emitted. Ask what should be applied to the document — not who may share or retain it.

What you get

OCR & searchable PDF

Make archives searchable. Surface text from scans and born-digital PDFs for search, DAM and downstream systems.

Convert & extract

PDF and office conversion plus text, table and metadata extraction into structured, machine-readable form.

Classify, redact, archive

Classification, redaction and PII detection, plus PDF/A generation for archival-ready outputs — capability-gated where expanding.

Automation & LLM-ready

Structured JSON and normalised document transforms so workflows and models consume consistent outputs, not raw blobs.

Included

  • PDF upload → OCR → extract
  • Classify · redact · structure
  • Same control plane as media
  • Processing — not document management

Example

Same auth and tenancy headers as the rest of the API. Where a capability plugs into Flows today, that is called out on the product page — we do not imply every media type shares one live pipeline yet.
