Why the models rank Reducto — on best ai document extraction api
“Consistently the accuracy leader on the documents that actually break parsers — dense financial tables, multi-column layouts, scanned forms — with schema-driven structured extraction, per-field citations/confidence, and a strong public-benchmark culture (RD-TableBench); it's what teams graduate to when Textract-class tools misread their tables. Assumption: the practitioner is shipping production extraction and can pay for a commercial API.”
