Parsr

7 5,645 4.6 JavaScript

Transforms PDF, Documents and Images into Enriched Structured Data

Project mention: LlamaCloud and LlamaParse | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-20

I'm part of the team that build LlamaParse. It's net improvement compare to other PDF->Structured Text extractors (I build several in the past, includig https://github.com/axa-group/Parsr).
For character extraction, LlamaParse use a mixture of OCR / character extraction from the PDF (it's the only parser I'm aware of that address some of the buggy PDF font issues, check the 'text' mode to see raw document before reconstruction), use a mixture of heuristic and Machine learning models to reconstruct the document.
Once plug with a Recursive retrieval strategy, allow you to get Sota result on question answering over complexe text (see notebook: https://github.com/run-llama/llama_parse/blob/main/examples/...).
