Mindee
"Turn your document data into structured JSON with high-reliability. Zero model training required." [1]
Mindee is a document data extraction API that converts invoices, receipts, identity documents, bank statements, and other structured documents into JSON without requiring model training. It targets finance, HR, and supply chain teams, with off-the-shelf extractors and a custom model builder for other document types. Pricing is credit-based (one credit per page) with published rates, self-serve signup, and an enterprise plan available; a 14-day trial provides 200 credits, but there is no permanent free tier. The REST API offers SDKs for Python, Node.js, PHP, Ruby, Java, and .NET, with webhook support, a published SLA, SOC 2 Type 2 certification, GDPR compliance, and EU or US data residency options.
Best for / Avoid if
Best for: Regulated or enterprise workloads - compliance attestations and an enterprise plan; AI agents and automation - an agent-ready surface (MCP / llms.txt); Teams needing broad API coverage out of the box
Avoid if: You want to try it free before paying
